During this talk we'll build a basic, working async runtime using nothing more than a standard library. The point? To see it's approachable for mere mortals.
For infrastructure engineers, SREs, platform teams, and Rust developers who've felt the pain of configuration drift, failed deployments, and infrastructure code that simply doesn't scale safely.
This session we will delve into the sometimes murky world of procedural macros - showing some of the great tooling available for understanding the code generated, such as cargo expand, and the key building blocks we will need for writing our own.
We’ll take a deep dive into Rust channels — from synchronous channels to asynchronous channels — to explore how message passing enables reliable concurrent programming.
