| This package exposes the `StreamChannel` interface, which represents a two-way |
| communication channel. Each `StreamChannel` exposes a `Stream` for receiving |
| data and a `StreamSink` for sending it. |
| |
| `StreamChannel` helps abstract communication logic away from the underlying |
| protocol. For example, the [`test`][test] package re-uses its test suite |
| communication protocol for both WebSocket connections to browser suites and |
| Isolate connections to VM tests. |

| |
| This package also contains utilities for dealing with `StreamChannel`s and with |
| two-way communications in general. For documentation of these utilities, see |
| [the API docs][api]. |
