Crate async_std

Async version of the Rust standard library.

This crate is an async version of std.

Higher-level documentation in the form of the book "Async programming in Rust with async-std" is available.

Examples

Spawn a task and block the current thread on its result:

use async_std::task;

fn main() {
    task::block_on(async {
        println!("Hello, world!");
    })
}

See here for more examples.
