How to Use uvloop Faster Event Loop

Install uvloop at startup to replace asyncio's default event loop with a faster libuv-based one, with a graceful fallback when it's unavailable.

uvloop asyncio event-loop
Python
import asyncio
try:
    import uvloop
    uvloop.install()
    USING_UVLOOP = True
except ImportError:
    USING_UVLOOP = False


async def fetch_data(index):
    await asyncio.sleep(0.01)
    return f"data-{index}"

Copy-ready Python snippets for learners and developers

PythonSkillset code samples are short, focused examples organised by topic and difficulty. Every snippet is server-rendered HTML — readable by search engines and easy to copy. Open any sample, read the notes, copy the code, then press Try in editor to run it in the browser with Pyodide.

How to use this library

  1. Pick a topic section — strings, lists, files, functions, and more
  2. Open a sample, read How it works, and copy the code block
  3. Run it in the IDE, tweak values, then take a related quiz or tutorial lesson

Samples vs tutorials and challenges

Samples are quick reference — one concept per page. For step-by-step teaching, use our Python tutorials. To test yourself, try quizzes or coding challenges. Clean up style with the Python formatter.
