## Blocking Context
Executing tasks in a blocking context means executing them on a thread without access to the [coroutine context](#suspending-context-coroutines) (basically, in non-suspending functions) and not under [a progress indicator](#progress-indicator).
Such tasks can't be canceled by using coroutines' or progress indicator's cancellation capabilities, which may block threads and consume resources even if the task is no longer relevant.
Such tasks can still be canceled, but they can't report progress.
Usually, plugins should not execute new code in the blocking context.
Plugins should not execute new code in the blocking context.
Always prefer executing tasks in the [suspending context](#suspending-context-coroutines) or under the [progress indicator](#progress-indicator) if a plugin cannot use Kotlin.
