Add async book link in the Learn section? #947

Open Zaechus opened 5 years ago

Zaechus commented 5 years ago

Now that async await syntax has hit stable Rust, it might be a good idea to link the Rust Async book with the other books in the Learn section of the website.

Maybe, it’s not done yet.

I’d also like to move it into the distribution, like the other books, when it’s ready.

The async book contains many section which are still marked as todo. We should probably wait until it's completely finished

Bump. Is it done enough yet?

Sections currently listed as "TODO" are: 6.4, 6.5, 10, and 11.

The most recent example of someone asking about async Rust is this thread on Reddit but there are others.

See https://github.com/rust-lang/async-book/issues/164

I don't think we should link the async book before its creators consider it done.

There are people actively working on adding async content to the book, which should be a little more high-level and targeted to users of async libraries.

qtfkwk commented 3 months ago

Agree. For clarification, this issue is about linking the async-book on the site, not putting async-book content in the rust book.
