The Rust Book is an incredible resource. Combined with Rustlings, a developer can learn quite about about the Rust programming language. I created this repo for those of you who want examples on Rust concepts that go a bit deeper in some areas and delve into third-party crates for some common use cases.

• Tokio Pub Sub
• Create your own Async Mutex
• Benchmark with Criterion and Cargo Flamegraph

Tokio Pub Sub

Build a small pubsub system with subscribers running on separate threads. The publisher can send text messages to all subscribers, as well as signal them to gracefully shutdown.

Tokio Pub Sub

Create your own Async Mutex

Learn about an Async Mutex by creating your own. This Mutex is heavily inspired by Tokio's Mutex.

Create your own Async Mutex

Benchmark with Criterion and Cargo Flamegraph

Create a benchmark for the Async Mutex we created and compare against Tokio's Mutex, Rust's std Mutex, and Parking Lot's Mutex and analyze the results. Generate a flamegraph of the benchmarks.
