Make the source code more readable (or include comments to tell what each line does) about greenlet

But wouldn't it be more beneficial to have speaking variable names instead?
Comments can be valuable, but should focus more on the Why instead of What, therefore the code itself should be better understandable in the what part.

Unless there was a need to win in a code golfing competition, there shouldn't be a need for single letter variables anyway.

Someone already annotated it:

@developit sure, go ahead with it!

the single letter variables look rather cryptic at first and could be better named, but it was also fun trying to understand what it was doing. knowing a little about promises, web workers and javascript helped too i guess :)

I love the idea of comments annotating things!

[developit]

Yup!

Hey @zz85 - mind if I add some of your annotations to the library itself?

[developit]

Should be much more readable now.
