|
| The book's title is "The Node Experiment - Exploring Async
| Basics with Rust".
|
| The reference to Node is that the book reimplements a similar
| system to Node's event loop, but using Rust, to learn more
| about Rust's async support.
|
| Node is chosen as a well known async model for this
| generation's developers.
