The project has some serious restrictions and unsound footguns (e.g. around TLS), but otherwise it's usable enough. There are also a number of C/C++ libraries, but I can not comment on those.

You don't want to use blocking mutexes anyway with async.

> or Rust's Rc

This is only half true. The danger is that two `Rc` that point to the same data are in different threads. But it should be safe to move all of them at once from one thread to another, which is exactly the case if all the `Rc`s involved live inside a `Future`. The problem is that this is a non-local property that's hard to encode in the type system.

> By the way, if you wish to test uncolored async in Rust, you can find an implementation here: https://github.com/Xudong-Huang/may .

FYI that's known to be unsound due to thread locals. And more generally it doesn't seem to give much attention to safety (see for example how it allowed unsound scoped tasks, or the fact it allows doing unsafe operations in some of its macros due to wrong scoping of `unsafe` blocks).

It seems that rust removed native green threads as against it's philosophy: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/29428318/why-did-rust-remove-the-green-threading-model-whats-the-disadvantage#29430403 but there are good CSP libraries e.g. https://github.com/Xudong-Huang/may and yet people really like e.g. Tokio for Async/Await (although it also has greenthreads!) What am I missing?

Can you admit that you failed in making it a pleasant experience to write async, especially for library authors? I don’t think it’s too late to admit failure and implement something like May https://github.com/Xudong-Huang/may

Your benchmark is comparing apples to oranges, you're benchmarking different things. If you wanted to compare a Rust solution to something like what Go does, you would need to use something like this library.

Yep. This is the best coroutine library right now https://github.com/Xudong-Huang/may

I am still intrigued by the stackful coroutine library, May https://github.com/Xudong-Huang/may. I would like to see how far this library can push the boundaries of being a higher level alternative to async

There is also "may" which attempts to be a Rust version of goroutines. I have not used it though, so can't comment on anything further about it.

This library https://github.com/Xudong-Huang/may implement Stackful Coroutines in Rust which I believe is pretty close to what you're asking about. I believe it's a reasonably complete implementation, but it doesn't have much traction because most of the Rust ecosystem is using either async/await or native threads.

I've never worked with C# so I need to look into that.

The one saving grace with Rust is if everyone decides to say "screw async" and just builds synchronous APIs, then we use something like [May](https://github.com/Xudong-Huang/may) for green threading.

Basic knowledge of Node.js and its environment setup. If you don't have Node.js installed on your system, make sure you download and install it from the official Node.js website.

Node.js can be easily installed from its official website. Depending on your operating system, you can choose the Windows, macOS, or Linux version. Node.js packages come with npm (Node Package Manager), which is essential for managing dependencies in your projects.

To get started with Node.js 22.0.0, you can download the latest version from the official Node.js website. For those upgrading from an older version, it is recommended to test your existing applications for compatibility with the new release, particularly if you are using native modules or rely heavily on third-party npm packages.

Node.js (version 10 or higher)

Before we start, ensure that you have Node.js installed on your computer. This is necessary because we will use Node's package manager (npm) to create our Next.js project. If you need to install Node.js, you can download it from the official Node.js website.

Before starting a new project in react, you need to make sure that you have NodeJS install on your system. You can download the latest version of node at https://nodejs.org. Follow the instructions on the node website to do the installation.

Installing Node.js: Download and install Node.js from nodejs.org. Choose the version recommended for most users, unless you have specific needs that require the latest features or earlier compatibility.

You should have Nodejs installed on your laptop and if not, check the Node.js official website, and download/ install the latest and stable release.
