TL;DR
anyio is an async library that runs on top of asyncio or Trio, providing a unified API with structured concurrency. It solves asyncio’s design limitations while offering backend portability.

Asyncio Module: Asynchronous Programming with async/await
TL;DR
Asyncio enables asynchronous programming with async/await syntax, allowing single-threaded concurrent execution perfect for I/O-bound tasks like web requests and file operations.
Interesting!
Asyncio can handle thousands of concurrent connections with minimal memory overhead - a single asyncio application can often outperform traditional threaded servers by avoiding context switching costs.
