I think the best part about smol is its composability.
Unlike tokio which consists of one large integrated library, smol provides many smaller, mostly runtime-agnostic crates e. g. blocking to run blocking I/O on a thread pool or async-lock for async lock primitives.
Tokio handles that through feature flags.
