Sadly with Flask the event-loop frameworkcan't be asyncio, although some extensions (Flask-Aiohttp) havetried. Quart is the solution as it shares the Flask API and isbased on asyncio. In addition Quart goes beyond Flask addingHTTP/2 and websockets. This talk will outline why event-loop concurrency is a goodchoice for web servers, why asyncio is a good choice and thengive an overview of Quart, demonstrating features that go beyondthe Flask framework. GeoPandas, the geospatial extension for Pandas (Gareth) The talk explores the power of spatial data, with an application based on John Snow's 1854 Cholera map. The famous map has many myths surrounding it, and I ask what John Snow could have done differently with modern GIS technology.
