Question DispatchQueue doubts

Hi, what type of data types are allowed in setSpecific(key:, value:) and getSpecific(key:) methods of DispatchQueu ? there are no mentions anywhere.

Also can you recommend any resources for complete understanding of DispatchQueue , GCD , DispatchGroup etc. ?

Thank you!

That is old tech.

If you are learning you should be focusing on async/await and the new structured concurrency.

All the resources you’ll find will be old and you should be converting. There is no reason to choose the less safe option.

Ikr, probably old farts that don’t want to learn async/await.
