Intro to Rust Async Function Execution With Smol - Rust Programming Tutorial for Developers

Dive into the world of asynchronous programming in Rust with this 52-minute tutorial video. Learn how to define async functions that return Future types and explore the need for executors to drive these Futures to completion. Gain a deeper understanding of async programming concepts by contrasting them with synchronous and multi-threaded execution. Focus on using the "smol" crate as an async executor, and by the end of the video, acquire the skills to define async functions and implement them effectively. Access additional resources, including a comprehensive Rust programming playlist and the Rust Async Programming Book, to further enhance your knowledge of asynchronous Rust development.
