uasync VS socket

[Pablo Oyarzo]

1) Is uasync supposed to be a higher and better way to do networking than socket?
2) Where I can find documentation on the portion of uasync that is implemented on micropython ?

They serve different purposes - (u)asyncio is a means of doing cooperative multi-tasking which can be used for applications other than networking. Some networking applications use uasyncio, some use _thread, and others run without any multi-tasking. The usocket module implements BSD sockets which are the basis for networking applications.

There is no official documentation on the MicroPython asyncio subset, but an unofficial guide is here https://github.com/peterhinch/micropython-async - follow the link to the tutorial.
