You have to have a proper event loop running your coroutines, such as asyncio, Twisted, or Trio. Since you are working with Qt you need an event loop that can co-exist with the Qt one.<br></div><div><br></div><div><a href="https://github.com/twisted/qt5reactor">https://github.com/twisted/qt5reactor</a><br></div><div><a href="https://qtrio.readthedocs.io/en/stable/">https://qtrio.readthedocs.io/en/stable/</a><br></div><div><a href="https://github.com/CabbageDevelopment/qasync">https://github.com/CabbageDevelopment/qasync</a><br></div><div><br></div><div>Sadly, I'm the author for QTrio and the most recently active maintainer for qt5reactor and I've got a new job not using neither so they need some love... and the asyncio options get forked every year or two it seems.
