Then the next concepts to consider are all about the program running your actual API (e.g. Uvicorn).

## Program and Process

We will talk a lot about the running "**process**", so it's useful to have clarity about what it means, and what's the difference with the word "**program**".

### What is a Program

# Concurrency and async / await

Details about the `async def` syntax for *path operation functions* and some background about asynchronous code, concurrency, and parallelism.

## In a hurry?

<abbr title="too long; didn't read"><strong>TL;DR:</strong></abbr>

If you are using third party libraries that tell you to call them with `await`, like:

```Python
results = await some_library()
```

import "k8s.io/apimachinery/pkg/runtime/schema/generated.proto";

// Package-wide variables from generator "generated".
option go_package = "k8s.io/api/apidiscovery/v2beta1";

// APIGroupDiscovery holds information about which resources are being served for all version of the API Group.
// It contains a list of APIVersionDiscovery that holds a list of APIResourceDiscovery types served for a version.

# Static Files - `StaticFiles`

You can use the `StaticFiles` class to serve static files, like JavaScript, CSS, images, etc.

Read more about it in the [FastAPI docs for Static Files](https://fastapi.tiangolo.com/tutorial/static-files/).

You can import it directly from `fastapi.staticfiles`:

```python
from fastapi.staticfiles import StaticFiles
```

I think `Union[SomeType, None]` is more explicit about what it means.

It's just about the words and names. But those words can affect how you and your teammates think about the code.

As an example, let's take this function:

```Python hl_lines="1  4"
{!../../../docs_src/python_types/tutorial009c.py!}
```

## Architecture Standards

**Experimental!**

We'd like to capture our architectural decisions about the build tool as [Architectural Decision Records (ADRs)](https://adr.github.io/).
For now we just have this global repository of ADRs.
If we see fit, we can break these out to per-platform ones, or keep a hybrid approach to having global and platform-specific ADSs.

Our aim is to keep the process lightweight and approachable.
