# Worker
|
|
|
|
Workers are any type that keep track of the current [EventLoop](../concepts/async.md).
|
|
|
|
Worker is a simple protocol and can be conformed to if the context can return (by means of a computed property) or contain an EventLoop.
|
|
|
|
There are three primary Workers that you can use to access the `EventLoop` and it's queue or context.
|
|
|
|
- [Request](../http/request.md) can be used, usually from within a [Route](../routing/basics.md)
|
|
- [EventLoop](../concepts/async.md) is itself a worker to ensure the extensions and consumers of Worker can be used, too.
|
|
- `DispatchQueue` is a worker that will return a *new and clean* EventLoop based on the current DispatchQueue
