How deeply does Rust Servers, Services, and Apps cover tcp server?

Builds a working byte-stream server and client, then stops short of interpreting application messages such as HTTP.

Tcp server

As explained in Rust Servers, Services, and Apps

A TCP server is a network service that listens for and accepts connections using Transmission Control Protocol.

A TCP server listens on an address, accepts incoming connections, and exchanges a continuous stream of bytes with clients. Rust’s standard library provides the networking primitives. section 2.0 section 2.4

A minimal implementation proceeds through these operations:

Run the server through Cargo within a workspace containing TCP and HTTP projects. section 2.2.2

Echo server

A TCP client connects to localhost:3000, sends “Hello,” and receives the same bytes. The server reports “Connection established” before performing the exchange.
