Concurrency in Developer Center Concurrency is a critical concept in software development that deals with the execution of multiple tasks at the same time. This allows applications to be more responsive and efficient. Here’s a brief overview of concurrency in our Developer Center.

What is Concurrency?

Concurrency refers to the ability of a computer system to execute multiple tasks simultaneously. It’s important for developing applications that need to perform several operations at once, such as web servers, games, and simulations.

Types of Concurrency

Thread-based: Using threads to execute tasks concurrently.
Process-based: Creating separate processes to handle tasks.
Asynchronous I/O: Performing I/O operations without blocking the main thread.

Best Practices

Use proper synchronization mechanisms to avoid race conditions.
Be cautious with shared resources to prevent deadlocks.
Use thread-safe data structures.
