https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/4.1/releases/4.1/#asynchro... :

`QuerySet` now provides an asynchronous interface for all data access operations. These are named as-per the existing synchronous operations but with an `a` prefix, for example `acreate()`, `aget()`, and so on.

> The new interface allows you to write asynchronous code without needing to wrap ORM operations in `sync_to_async()`:

  async for author in Author.objects.filter(name__startswith="A"):
      book = await author.books.afirst()

## Asynchronous handlers for class-based views

> View subclasses may now define async HTTP method handlers:

  import asyncio
  from django.http import HttpResponse
  from django.views import View

  class AsyncView(View):
      async def get(self, request, *args, **kwargs):
          # Perform view logic using await.
          await asyncio.sleep(1)
          return HttpResponse("Hello async world!")
