As Python 3 has eclipsed the old constraints of Python 2 and the web frameworks that adopted

them, we've seen a big jump in the new frameworks appearing on the scene taking full

advantage of things like typants, async it away, and more.

No framework has done this more successfully than Fast API recently.

That's why we're here with the creator of Fast API, Sebastian Ramirez, to dive into this

exciting new Python web framework.

Welcome to Talk Python to Me, a weekly podcast on Python, the language, the libraries, the ecosystem, and the personalities.

This is your host, Michael Kennedy. Follow me on Twitter where I'm at M. Kennedy.

Python's async and parallel programming support is highly underrated.

Have you shied away from the amazing new async and await keywords because you've heard it's way too complicated

or that it's just not worth the effort. With the right workloads, a hundred times speed up is

totally possible with minor changes to your code. But you do need to understand the internals.

And that's why our course, async techniques and examples in Python, show you how to write

async code successfully as well as how it works.

Get started with Async and await today with our course at talk python.fm slash async.

Sebastian, welcome to Talk Python to me.

Thank you very much. Thank you for the invitation. It's a great pleasure to be here.

Well, thanks for building a cool web API.
