Take a look at https://rust-lang.github.io/wg-async/vision.html for the shiny things that are planned in future versions of Rust. This will most likely require brand-new frameworks and create a whole lot of pointless churn for pre-existing code.

I doubt it. I suspect existing code will continue to work with minor mechanical changes, and the improvements will just open up new use cases that are either impossible or awkward to do today.


In the list of projects I don't see many that would actually materially change frameworks, beyond changes from -> Box<dyn Future> to -> impl Future or reduced boilerplate due to more concise syntax sugar.
