Regarding async, see https://areweasyncyet.rs/. The foundations are mostly done, currently the syntax is still being bikeshedded.

The futures stabilization is very close as well, see https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/59725 and https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/59739 . Very soon! Like, hours.

But yes, after that, the big issue is the syntax issues around async/await. Working on it!

And Futures are about to be stabilized any moment now (and with that I mean within a few hours probably).
