// Supported in 2024 edition
let async_closure = async || {
    // async operations
};

// Calling returns a Future
let future = async_closure();

2. Improved Error Handling

Better error messages and diagnostics.

3. Performance Optimizations

Compiler optimization improvements for more efficient code generation.

Migration Verification

1. Check Compilation

cd packages/bot
cargo check

2. Run Tests

cargo test

3. Format Code

cargo fmt

4. Run Clippy

cargo clippy -- -D warnings

Backward Compatibility
