rust-async-internals

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps developers understand and debug the complex internals of Rust's asynchronous programming model, including Futures, Pinning, and task scheduling.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Future Trait & Poll Model: Explains the core mechanism of async execution.
• Pinning & Unpinning: Clarifies memory safety for self-referential types in async contexts.
• Tokio Task Scheduling: Details how tasks are managed and executed.
• Debugging Tools: Introduces tokio-console for runtime inspection.
• Use Case: Debugging a deadlock in an async application by inspecting task dependencies and wakeups using tokio-console.

Quick Start
