Who Runs Your Rust Future? Hands-On Intro to Async Rust
Summary
A deep dive into Rust's async model, this article builds a minimal executor step by step, explaining Future, Poll, Waker, and a oneshot channel. It contrasts Rust's lazy futures with Node's event loop and provides runnable code to drive a Future to completion with a simple block_on runner. A solid resource for developers learning async Rust and runtime concepts.
