Twisted runs on Python 2 and an ever growing subset also works with Python 3. Twisted also supports many common network protocols, including SMTP, POP3, IMAP, SSHv2, and DNS. |
Fast event loop based on libev or libuv;
Lightweight execution units based on greenlets;
API that re-uses concepts from the Python standard library (for examples there are events and queues);
Cooperative sockets with SSL support;
Cooperative DNS queries performed through a threadpool, dnspython, or c-ares;
Monkey patching utility to get 3rd party modules to become cooperative;
TCP/UDP/HTTP servers;
