Rust 走向 async/await 之路

Steve Klabnik walks through the history of Rust and how its design evolved toward async/await, including the alternatives tried and dropped. He also discusses the difficulty of adding a major feature to a language.

Why HN likes it: HN points to it to show how deliberately the Rust team arrived at async/await and why it was chosen over alternatives like green threads.

“It will show you how meticulous the core team is and how long it took to arrive at this incredible, best in class design.”
