Add the following Maven/Gradle dependencies:

| Feature          | Artifact

| Core (required)  | `co.paralleluniverse:quasar-core:0.7.8[:jdk8]` (for JDK 8 optionally add the `jdk8` classifier)
| Actors           | `co.paralleluniverse:quasar-actors:0.7.8`
| Clustering       | `co.paralleluniverse:quasar-galaxy:0.7.8`
| Reactive Streams | `co.paralleluniverse:quasar-reactive-streams:0.7.8`
| Disruptor Channels| `co.paralleluniverse:quasar-disruptor:0.7.8`
| Kotlin           | `co.paralleluniverse:quasar-kotlin:0.7.8`

Or, build from sources by running:

```

## Usage

* [Documentation](http://docs.paralleluniverse.co/quasar/)
* [Javadoc](http://docs.paralleluniverse.co/quasar/javadoc)

You can also study the examples [here](https://github.com/puniverse/quasar/tree/master/quasar-actors/src/test/java/co/paralleluniverse/actors).

You can also read the introductory [blog post](http://blog.paralleluniverse.co/post/49445260575/quasar-pulsar).

When running code that uses Quasar, the instrumentation agent must be run by adding this to the `java` command line:

```
-javaagent:path-to-quasar-jar.jar
```
