How to Fix a Circular Import in Python

Think of two pieces of code (let's call them A and B) that need each other to work. A says, "I need B to do my job," and at the same time, B says, "I need A to do my job." But if A is waiting for B to work, and B is waiting for A to work, neither can start working. This "waiting on each other" situation causes Python to get stuck and throw a circular import error.

N|Solid: Node.js Compatibility Proven through Fastify CI Integration

At NodeSource, we understand the hesitance and scrutiny that often accompany claims of "Node.js compatibility". The Node.js ecosystem is vast and intricate, and as Matteo Collina rightly points out, passing a "hello world" example is just the start. We believe N|Solid should be a component of every Node.js project, especially in production, to provide developers and organizations with the most advanced performance and security observability tooling.
