The most important bit I guess, regarding the question of whether Rust will ever have green threads/fibers/trails/whatever (answer: no, because no runtime).
- steveklabnik 9y agoNot built into Rust, yes. But since Rust has no runtime, if you want those things, you can bring them along, as a library. The danger there is splitting an ecosystem, but in general the community has been sensitive to this, and once Tokio was determined as the way forward, the other projects stopped to throw their weight behind it too.
