Is there anything in Julia equivalent or near to `Stream` in Dart?

Yes, the equivalents would be `Channel` ([Parallel Computing · The Julia Language](https://docs.julialang.org/en/v1/manual/parallel-computing/#Channels-1)) and `Condition` ([Tasks · The Julia Language](https://docs.julialang.org/en/v1/base/parallel/#Base.Condition)).

A `Channel` provides a way to (asynchronously) pass values between `Task`s, and can either be buffering or blocking. You can `put!` a value into a `Channel`, and `take!` a value from a `Channel`, which, as you might expect, operates in a FIFO (first-in → first-out) manner.

A `Condition` provides an edge-triggered signal that `Task`s can `wait` on (you can also `wait` on a `Channel`, which will trigger when a value is available in the `Channel`).
