There’s been a decent amount of standardization on top of Tokio’s implementation of async (green threads). If a library didn’t support it at first, they probably now do using features in your project.toml requirements.[1][2] That said, I agree the standard library isn’t the size or utility of Go’s nor is the ecosystem as wide as Go or npm. Personally, I’m looking forward to the next few years when more and more companies reveal what patterns they use with Rust development. I think Rust is missing the kind of boost that Rails gave Ruby, for example, or that TypeScript and React gave Node/SSR. Or that Pandas gave Python. 1. https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/specifying-dependencies.html#choosing-features https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/specifying-depende... 2. https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/features.html#dependency-features https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/features.html#depe...
