Explore the portability and interoperability initiative of the Rust async working group in this 35-minute conference talk by Nick Cameron. Gain insights into the challenges of async programming in Rust and learn about efforts to reduce runtime dependencies and enhance ecosystem interoperability. Discover the current work on async IO traits, including Read and Write, and understand the initiative's goals without requiring prior async programming experience. Delve into topics such as reading files asynchronously, async functions, multiple runtimes, and async IO models. Benefit from Nick Cameron's expertise as a Rust core team member and Microsoft engineer as he presents this accessible overview of Rust's async programming landscape.
