tokio itself is not mature/stable enough to be in the standard library, IMO, let alone anything based on tokio.

I'm pretty new to Rust so forgive me if I'm mistaken, but it seems to me that this crate doesn't require the use of tokio.

When all the examples are marked with `#[tokio::main]`, it probably requires tokio.

Although I guess they do implement Future on their own so it shouldn't need a specific runtime then.

They're just using tokio as a dev dependency. You could use this with any async runtime

Tokio is just used for async tests and the examples, the crate doesn’t depend on any specific async runtime :)
