Rust Makes Progress On Async Rust Experience, Stabilizing Tooling For Rust In The Kernel


The Rust project this morning published a status update on some of their top project goals, including for enhancing the async Rust experience to make it closer to the sync programming experience as well as stabilizing the tooling needed for Rust programming use within the Linux kernel.

Some of their recent initiatives include improved support for async-fn-in-traits, progress towards sync and async generators, better ergonomics of Pin, and other changes. Features like ABI-modifying flags, stabilizing build-std, and better integration with the Linux kernel's build system continue to materialize. In case you missed it, earlier this month the Rust project celebrated its ten year anniversary for this programming language focused on memory safety and other modern features.
