Description

It’d be great if PapaParse could support asynchronous iteration because it lets you pull data – e.g.:

for await (const row of Papa.parse(bigFile, {asyncIteration: true})) {
  console.log(row);
}

Contributor guide

Research direction
Research JavaScript async iteration (for await of) and study PapaParse's internal parsing pipeline to understand how to expose an async iterable from the parse method.
