## What it is
A collection of Rust source code examples accompanying a planned book on concurrency programming in Rust. It covers threads, thread pools, async/await, synchronization primitives, channels, and popular concurrency libraries like parking_lot, crossbeam, rayon, and tokio.

## Use cases
- learn concurrency programming in Rust
- understand async/await in Rust
- see examples of thread pools in Rust
- learn how to use tokio
- compare crossbeam and std channels
- study synchronization primitives in Rust
- learn parallel programming with rayon

## When to choose
- you are learning Rust concurrency from scratch
- you want runnable example code for threads, channels, and async
- you want a structured chapter-by-chapter curriculum on Rust concurrency

## When to avoid
- you need a production concurrency library rather than educational examples
- you need comprehensive documentation rather than code snippets
- you are not working in Rust

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: active
- function: concurrency, developer-tools
- domain: tutorials, programming-languages, developer-tools
- platform: rust, cross-platform
- tags: rust, concurrency, book, examples, async, threads, tokio, rayon, crossbeam
