async-views

Asynchronous views (async views) are view functions or classes in web frameworks that are designed to handle requests asynchronously. This means they can perform long-running or blocking operations (like database queries or external API calls) without blocking the main event loop of the application. By using async/await keywords, these views allow the application to remain responsive and handle more concurrent requests, leading to improved performance and scalability. In essence, instead of waiting for an operation to complete before handling the next request, the view can temporarily release control back to the event loop, allowing other requests to be processed. Once the operation is finished, the view resumes execution and sends the response. This is particularly beneficial in I/O-bound applications where waiting for external resources is a common occurrence.
