to Django REST framework
This conversation explores how to integrate Python’s asyncio with Django Rest Framework by using Django’s sync_to_async utility. Since DRF is still primarily synchronous, asynchronous Django views must wrap synchronous ORM queries, serializers, and DRF functions using sync_to_async to avoid blocking the event loop or introduce similar feature as the package ADRF(3-party package that bring async to django rest framework) but make it in django rest framework.
