+description: "Luv is a binding to libuv, the cross-platform C library that does
+asynchronous I/O in Node.js and runs its main loop.
+
+Besides asynchronous I/O, libuv also supports multiprocessing and
+multithreading. Multiple event loops can be run in different threads. libuv also
+exposes a lot of other functionality, amounting to a full OS API, and an
+alternative to the standard module Unix."
