<p>Welcome to FastAPI's documentation. Get started with <a href="#">installation</a>
and then get an overview with the <a href="#">quickstart</a>. There is also a
more detailed <a href="#">tutorial</a> that shows how to create a small but
complete application with FastAPI. Common patterns are described in the
<a href="#">patterns</a> section. The rest of the docs describe each
component of FastAPI in detail, with a full reference in the <a href="#">API</a>
section.</p>

This allows for async functions to be passed to the Flask class
instance, for example as a view function,
@app.route("/")
async def index():
return "Async hello"
this comes with a cost though of poorer performance than using the
sync equivalent.
asgiref is the standard way to run async code within a sync context,
and is used in Django making it a safe and sane choice for this.
