Recreating concurrent futures combinators in smol

[v1gnesh]

When trying to run the example as shown in the blog, it just hangs after it awaits the first Task.
Any idea what may be going on?

You need to run the Executor.

Ah yes, I figured this after looking through other issues / users.rust-lang. Thank you!
I must be doing something un-optimally, as with smol, my program is noticably slower.
