Module futures01::prelude[][src]

A “prelude” for crates using the futures crate.

This prelude is similar to the standard library’s prelude in that you’ll almost always want to import its entire contents, but unlike the standard library’s prelude you’ll have to do so manually. An example of using this is:

use futures::prelude::*;

We may add items to this over time as they become ubiquitous as well, but otherwise this should help cut down on futures-related imports when you’re working with the futures crate!
