In v2.1.2 Outcome published official support for using Outcome within C++ coroutines. This page documents that support.

All standard C++ Coroutines have the following form:

// Coroutine functions MUST return an AWAITABLE type
AWAITABLE<int> function_name(Args ...)
{
  ... ordinary C++ ...
  if(!...)
  {
    co_return 5;  // CANNOT use ordinary 'return' from coroutines
  }
  ...
  // Possibly suspend this coroutine's execution until the
  // awaitable resumes execution of dependent code
  auto x = co_await expr_resulting_in_AWAITABLE;
  ...
}

The type AWAITABLE<T> is any type which publishes the Coroutine protocol telling C++ how to suspend and resume execution of a coroutine which returns a T. It is out of scope of this page to document how to do this, however note that the eager<T, Executor = void> and lazy<T, Executor = void> types below are completely generic awaitables suitable for use in ANY code. They only behave differently if T, the type being returned by the awaitable, is an Outcome type e.g. outcome::basic_result or outcome::basic_outcome.
