# Backtor
Backtor is an experimental, thread-based backport of Ractor to earlier Ruby
versions.
Since it's based on Ruby's `Thread` mechanism, you don't get the true
concurrency of Ractors, but it does mean that you can write applications using
Ractor and still have them work at a reduced speed in Ruby 2.
This is still a work in progress! The basic `yield`/`take` and `send`/`recv`
mechanisms are implemented, but very little else.
