+/// This example shows how to use hyper with a single-threaded runtime.
+/// This example exists also to test if the code compiles when `Body` is not `Send`.
+///
+/// This Example includes HTTP/1 and HTTP/2 server and client.
+///
+/// In HTTP/1 it is possible to use a `!Send` `Body`type.
+/// In HTTP/2 it is possible to use a `!Send` `Body` and `IO` type.
+///
+/// The `Body` and `IOTypeNotSend` structs in this example are `!Send`
+///
+/// For HTTP/2 this only works if the `Executor` trait is implemented without the `Send` bound.
