AFAIK Javaflow's been inactive for over a decade. Newer implementations for the same concept include https://github.com/offbynull/coroutines and https://github.com/vsilaev/tascalate-javaflow/.
Full disclosure: I'm the one who built / owns the first project.

I'm having an ADHD night and I had the same thought, except I haven't died yet. Felt like giving up three times already, but I did have a click moment after playing around with a scheme repl for a couple of minutes. I understand the first example of call/cc now!
(display
(call/cc (lambda (cc)
(display "I got here.\n")
(cc "This string was passed to the continuation.\n")
(display "But not here.\n"))))
