How do I deploy a Flask app with asynchronous capabilities?

To deploy a Flask app with async capabilities, you can use an ASGI server like Uvicorn or Hypercorn.

What are the benefits of using async in Flask?

Using async allows your app to handle multiple requests concurrently, improving performance and responsiveness.

Can you give me a simple example of an async route in Flask?

Sure! Here's a basic example:

from flask import Flask
import asyncio

app = Flask(__name__)

@app.route('/async')
async def async_route():
    await asyncio.sleep(1)
    return 'This is an async route!'

What server should I use for production?

For production, consider using Uvicorn or Gunicorn with an ASGI worker to handle async requests efficiently.
