## Signals
Though minimally, our application uses [Django signals](https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/5.0/topics/signals/). In particular, we use a subset of prebuilt signals called [model signals](https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/5.0/ref/signals/#module-django.db.models.signals).
Per Django, signals "[...allow certain senders to notify a set of receivers that some action has taken place.](https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/5.0/topics/signals/#module-django.dispatch)" For the vast majority of our use cases, [pre_save](https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/5.0/ref/signals/#pre-save) or [post_save](https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/5.0/ref/signals/#post-save) are be sufficient.

In other words, signals are a mechanism that allows different parts of an application to communicate with each other by sending and receiving notifications when said actions occur.
