+//! Tokio context aware futures utilities.
+//!
+//! This module includes utilities around integrating tokio with other runtimes
+//! by allowing the context to be attached to futures. This allows spawning
+//! futures on other executors while still using tokio to drive them. This
+//! can be useful if you need to use a tokio based library in an executor/runtime
+//! that does not provide a tokio context.
