Install Tokio runtime


  1. Ensure Rust is Installed
    If you haven't installed Rust yet, make sure to do so using rustup:

    winget install -e --id Rustlang.Rustup
    
  2. Create a New Rust Project
    If you're starting fresh, create a new Rust project:

    cargo new my_project
    cd my_project
    
  3. Add Tokio as a Dependency
    Open the Cargo.toml file in your project and add Tokio:

    [dependencies]
    tokio = { version = "1", features = ["full"] }
    

    Alternatively, you can run:

    cargo add tokio --features full
    
  4. Write a Basic Tokio Application
    Now, create a simple async function in main.rs:

    use tokio::time::{sleep, Duration};
    
    #[tokio::main]
    async fn main() {
        println!("Hello, Tokio!");
        sleep(Duration::from_secs(2)).await;
        println!("Done!");
    }
    
  5. Build and Run
    Compile and execute your program:

    cargo run
