Congratulations on releasing 1.0. This will be a huge milestone in making async programming very approachable to newer Rust devs and a solid base to build upon. There's a lot to like about async-std: It keeps things as similar as possible to std, and the general focus on a well-designed public API, relies on small and shared abstractions for library authors (through futures-rs), good documentation from the start, and a very encouraging community attitude. Keep it going :-)

Do you use `tokio` with async-std or does it come with its own task spawner/executor?

async-std comes with its own work-stealing executor built on the async-task and crossbeam-deque crates by the same author.
