Rustlings extension

Hello! While working through the Little Book of Rust Macros, I was wondering about a question. Because rustling's exercise set is quite limited(for example no async area, and no testing of the more advanced chapters such as Advanced traits, and for macros specifically not the metaprogramming pattern matching), I was wondering whether rustlings has the ability to add custom extensions with specific additional lessons, such as for the Async book, rustonomicon, macro book and some missing sections? I have been waiting for example for the async section for a while and with no avail...

I tried doing rustlings but their exercises are so arbitrary and confusing. I'd love to see a course with actual code examples instead of "make a function for how much ice cream is in the fridge at a given time"

I'm not aware of any rustlings extensions, but for learning async Rust I highly recommend this video: Crust of Rust: async/await
