An update on my "build your own async X in Rust" blog post series: I discovered something that I'm just too excited to share soon! 1/12

Furthermore, less complexity means fewer bugs, API easier to learn, and code that is easier to maintain and extend. 6/12

Safe code inspires confidence. No need to anxiously test runtimes with thread sanitizer, miri, or loom. No need to even use those tools because safe code is immune to the kinds of bugs they catch! 7/12

Don't worry about tunables because you can tune everything in a custom runtime. 8/12

Because there is freedom to tune all the moving parts, you should be able outperform all other runtimes by yourself! 9/12

If you look at how big the presently popular runtimes are, I want to reduce the complexity 10-20x in terms of lines of code and the size of API. 10/12

I'm also excited to see more people building more async runtimes in Rust! I really think so far we've only been scratching the surface and there is so much yet to explore. 11/12

Curious to hear thoughts and happy to answer questions! 12/12

I would argue that if you can write a nontrivial concurrency library, you are an expert; the criteria to judge that is not how small is the code or how easy it felt for you to write it. Still, having great language/tools is awesome
