About this talk

In this session, Alexander Varwijk discusses the introduction of the Revolt event loop in Drupal Core, which enables developers to address the challenges of asynchronous applications. The talk begins with a recap of synchronous applications and highlights the advantages offered by asynchronous programming. Varwijk explores the current status of Revolt's integration in Drupal Core and examines task coordination issues that arise in asynchronous code. He also delves into the use of futures for effective branching logic and introduces the amphp libraries, which, while not included in Drupal Core, can enhance developers' projects and contrib modules. Attendees will gain insights into adopting an asynchronous mindset while working with Drupal.
