Rust Async/Await & Module Patterns

What problem does it solve?

This Skill addresses the complexities of managing asynchronous operations and structuring code effectively within Rust applications, particularly when dealing with FFI (Foreign Function Interface) bindings and multi-threaded environments.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Tokio Runtime Management: Provides patterns for global runtimes, dedicated thread pools, and feature-gated runtimes.
• FFI Safety: Emphasizes Send + Sync requirements for thread-safe type exposure across language boundaries.
• Bridging Sync/Async: Offers strategies for integrating asynchronous Rust code with synchronous host languages.
• Module Organization: Suggests a clear directory structure for separating async and sync code.
• Testing Async Code: Demonstrates unit and integration testing for asynchronous Rust functions.

Quick Start

Use the Rust Async/Await & Module Patterns skill to understand how to manage Tokio runtimes for FFI bindings.
