TokioConf 2026 is about seven weeks away and the organizers are sharing details about what to expect. The conference is aimed at Tokio users shipping production software, not just core contributors. It focuses specifically on network programming with Rust, covering topics like async cancellation semantics, runtime instrumentation, and production debugging. Tokio core contributors including Alice Ryhl and Sean McArthur will be present and running a Monday workshop. Tickets are priced at cost with a Community Access pool that grows with each ticket sold before end of March. Social events include a Portland coffee tour, a private dinner, and a food cart pod gathering on Tuesday night.
