Asynchronous programming is a programming model that allows tasks or operations to run independently in parallel, without blocking the main execution thread. It enables developers to perform non-blocking operations and efficiently handle tasks that might take longer to complete, such as network requests, file operations, or accessing external services.
In a web application, if a user submits a form and the server needs to make a database query to process the request, asynchronous programming can be used to allow the application to continue handling other requests while waiting for the database query to complete, instead of blocking and waiting for the response before moving on to the next request.
