Quick Answer
Async web frameworks: FastAPI and Starlette use asyncio natively - define route handlers as async def for non-blocking I/O. Django 3.1+ supports async views and middleware. Use async DB libraries: asyncpg (PostgreSQL), motor (MongoDB), aioredis. Don't mix sync and async code carelessly - sync calls block the event loop. Use asyncio.to_thread() to run blocking code in a thread pool without blocking.
