Install Tokio runtime

on


  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
