 handle async and sync code in an asyncio event loop. This has the
 following implications:
 
--   Template rendering requires an event loop to be available to the

-    event loop.
 -   The compiled code uses ``await`` for functions and attributes, and
     uses ``async for`` loops. In order to support using both async and
