|  | This crate provides an async version of [`std`]. It provides all the interfaces | 
|  | you are used to, but in an async version and ready for Rust's `async`/`await` | 
|  | syntax. | 
|  |  | 
|  | [`std`]: https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/index.html | 
|  |  | 
|  | ## Features | 
|  |  | 
|  | - __Modern:__ Built from the ground up for `std::future` and `async/await` with | 
|  | blazing fast compilation time. | 
|  | - __Fast:__ Our robust allocator and threadpool designs provide ultra-high | 
|  | throughput with predictably low latency. | 
|  | - __Intuitive:__ Complete parity with the stdlib means you only need to learn | 
|  | APIs once. | 
|  | - __Clear:__ [Detailed documentation][docs] and [accessible guides][book] mean | 
|  | using async Rust was never easier. | 
|  |  | 
|  | [docs]: https://docs.rs/async-std | 
|  | [book]: https://book.async.rs | 
|  |  | 
|  | ## Examples | 
|  |  | 
|  | ```rust | 
|  | use async_std::task; | 
|  |  | 
|  | async fn say_hello() { | 
|  | println!("Hello, world!"); | 
|  | } | 
|  |  | 
|  | fn main() { | 
|  | task::block_on(say_hello()) | 
|  | } | 
|  | ``` | 
|  |  | 
|  | More examples, including networking and file access, can be found in our | 
|  | [`examples`] directory and in our [documentation]. | 
|  |  | 
|  | [`examples`]: https://github.com/async-rs/async-std/tree/master/examples | 
|  | [documentation]: https://docs.rs/async-std#examples | 
|  | [`task::block_on`]: https://docs.rs/async-std/*/async_std/task/fn.block_on.html | 
|  | [`"attributes"` feature]: https://docs.rs/async-std/#features | 
|  |  | 
|  | ## Philosophy | 
|  |  | 
|  | We believe Async Rust should be as easy to pick up as Sync Rust. We also believe | 
|  | that the best API is the one you already know. And finally, we believe that | 
|  | providing an asynchronous counterpart to the standard library is the best way | 
|  | stdlib provides a reliable basis for both performance and productivity. | 
|  |  | 
|  | Async-std is the embodiment of that vision. It combines single-allocation task | 
|  | creation, with an adaptive lock-free executor, threadpool and network driver to | 
|  | create a smooth system that processes work at a high pace with low latency, | 
|  | using Rust's familiar stdlib API. | 
|  |  | 
|  | ## Installation | 
|  |  | 
|  | With [cargo add][cargo-add] installed run: | 
|  |  | 
|  | ```sh | 
|  | $ cargo add async-std | 
|  | ``` | 
|  |  | 
|  | We also provide a set of "unstable" features with async-std. See the [features | 
|  | documentation] on how to enable them. |
