Introduction to Celery and Creating Asynchronous Tasks for Django 

This is a preview of the video course "Creating Asynchronous Tasks With Celery and Django". You’ve built a shiny Django app and want to release it to the public, but you’re worried about time-intensive tasks that are part of your app’s workflow. You don’t want your users to have a negative experience navigating your app. You can integrate Celery to help with that.
Celery is a distributed task queue for UNIX systems. It allows you to offload work from your Python app. Once you integrate Celery into your app, you can send time-intensive tasks to Celery’s task queue.
This is a portion of the complete course, which you can find here:

The rest of the course covers:
- Integrate Celery and Redis in a Django project
- Set up asynchronous tasks that run independently of your Django app
- Refactor Django code to run a task with Celery instead
