Green vs Native threads

Rust approach

Async/Await:

• how to use?
  • mark a function as async fn ..
  • get the result of an async function as let res = some_async_fn().await?. Note that async function always returns a Result, so you’ll have to either explicitly transform that result or use ? to stack the error/value.

• what even is an async function?

Tokio approach
