Coroutines are much better suited to event driven, non blocking IO code. Sorry for the shameless plug but I recently released my hobby project that uses Lua coroutines for nonblocking HTTP server: https://github.com/raksoras/luaw

Lua was quite pleasant to work with in this context!

Agreed, but Node has had co-routines in the form of the node-fibers package since almost the very beginning.
