Next-Level Concurrent Programming In Python With Asyncio

💡 Learn how to design great software in 7 steps: https://arjan.codes/designguide.

If your software interacts with external APIs, you need to know concurrent programming. I show you how it works in Python and then take it to the next level by showing advanced concurrent features such as using async with generators and comprehensions, show a simple way to turn blocking code into concurrent code, and then I cover how concurrency affects software design and architecture.

The code I worked on in this episode is available here: https://github.com/ArjanCodes/2022-asyncio.
