rspotify VS cmder

Apologies for the stupid question but I'm fairly new to Rust and can't figure out for the life of me how to use the rspotify crate. As far as I can get with the documentation / examples is just that it isn't a regular application / binary of itself but just a crate, but I don't see why that's causing me issues. Whenever I try to run the following example, I get the following error, despite me trying to remove and rebuild the crate just in case.

Link to the example code (Line 42)

I have wanted async generics myself for some time now. In RSpotify, we have both async and blocking users, so we had to resort to maybe_async to switch between them. However, this macro has a few caveats and isn't as convenient as having it built-in.

maybe_async accomplishes this by switching based on the feature flags enabled for your library. I found it in rspotify, but haven't actually given it a try myself.

As a developer of rspotify I'm curious as to why you chose not to use an already existing API client for Spotify. Are there any problems you found? I do agree that the current version is a mess but we're working on a full rewrite for 0.10 and you might be interested in that.

I recently discovered Cmder:

https://cmder.app/

It's a portable console emulator and gives you the ability to "place your own executable files into the bin folder to be injected into your PATH" when it's run.

So far I've added:

jq

Assuming you already have Visual Studio Code installed, the first thing you'll want to do is Download Cmder. Extract the files to C:\cmder, or wherever you like.

I use cmder, it's great https://cmder.app/

The multiple supported shells remind me a little bit of the Windows cmder app, which I recall being pretty decent: https://cmder.app/

But the cross platform aspect is really nice, even if in my experience using different terminal apps per platform hasn't been too big of an issue.

Maybe except for MobaXTerm feeling better than most Linux tabbed/split terminal offerings due to its usability and support for sending input to multiple remote sessions at the same time, SSH integration etc.: https://mobaxterm.mobatek.net/ (something like Remmina is on par with mRemoteNG, so nice but not quite there)

I've since found that dev workflows in Windows work pretty damn good now, actually. I hate PowerShell so I still don't use it, but I now use Nushell, Cmder, and Git-Bash as my shells within the native Windows terminal emulator and it's actually pretty damn good and very close to the Unix experience. I actually like the native Windows terminal more than Kitty and would switch to it on my Ubuntu machine and my work MacBook if it were available on these systems.

If you haven't tried Cmder yet you definitely should.

The Second was to directly avoid powershell & cmd altogether .. i also used cmder which gave me a feeling of Linux on windows
