You may be interested in taking a look at the API of OS.File. The design is rather different to libuv, as it is meant (only) for file I/O rather than (mostly) net I/O. In particular, we to: - minimize the total amount of I/O required (so as to save battery); - take advantage of high-level primitives provided by the OS wherever available; - expose OS-specific features, rather than just ~Posix; - use a single worker thread, to avoid causing disk thrashing.
