9. When Tokio Isn't the Right Fit 🟡

async fn process_items(items: &[String]) {
    // ❌ Can't do this — items is borrowed, not 'static
    // for item in items {
    //     tokio::spawn(async {
    //         process(item).await;
    //     });

    // 😐 Workaround 1: Clone everything
    for item in items {

        tokio::spawn(async move {
            process(&item).await;

    // 😐 Workaround 2: Use Arc

    for i in 0..items.len() {
        let items = Arc::clone(&items);
        tokio::spawn(async move {

// 3. tokio JoinSet (tokio 1.21+) — managed set of spawned tasks

//    not the 'static problem. Useful for tracking, aborting, and
//    joining a dynamic group of tasks.
