+/// The implementation of waking a task on an executor.
+///
+/// This trait can be used to create a [`Waker`]. An executor can define an
+/// implementation of this trait, and use that to construct a Waker to pass
+/// to the tasks that are executed on that executor.
+///
+/// This trait is a memory-safe and ergonomic alternative to constructing a
+/// [`RawWaker`]. It supports the common executor design in which the data used
+/// to wake up a task is stored in an [`Arc`][arc]. Some executors (especially
+/// those for embedded systems) cannot use this API, which is why [`RawWaker`]
+/// exists as an alternative for those systems.
+///
+/// [arc]: ../../std/sync/struct.Arc.html
