    /// modules of your project. For example, a module might require a `tokio::runtime::Handle`
    /// to spawn tasks on the same runtime, or the runtime itself to configure more complex
    /// behaviours.

    /// # Example
    ///
    /// ```

    /// mod module_a {
    ///     pub fn do_something(handle: tokio::runtime::Handle) {
