## Implementation
Now that we understand how cooperative multitasking based on futures and async/await works in Rust, it's time to add support for it to our kernel. Since the [`Future`] trait is part of the `core` library and async/await is a feature of the language itself, there is nothing special we need to do to use it in our `#![no_std]` kernel. The only requirement is that we use at least nightly-TODO of Rust because async/await was not `no_std` compatible before.

With a recent-enough nightly, we can start using async/await in our `main.rs`:
