It runs stuff in the background.

import time
import background
@background.task
def work():
# Do something expensive here.
time.sleep(10)
for _ in range(100):
work()Advanced Usage

# Use 40 background threads.
background.n = 40
@background.task
def work():
time.sleep(10)
return "Done!"
@background.callback

print(future.result())
