+//! This example demonstrates how to assign resources to multiple tasks by splitting up the peripherals.
+//! It is not about sharing the same resources between tasks, see sharing.rs for that or head to https://embassy.dev/book/#_sharing_peripherals_between_tasks)
+//! Of course splitting up resources and sharing resources can be combined, yet this example is only about splitting up resources.
+//!
+//! There are basically two ways we demonstrate here:
+//! 1) Assigning resources to a task by passing parts of the peripherals
+//! 2) Assigning resources to a task by passing a struct with the split up peripherals, using the assign-resources macro
+//! 
+//! using four LEDs on Pins 10, 11, 20 and 21
