Twisted

Thank You, Twisted Sponsors! ¶

We'd like to thank all the companies that have sponsored Twisted this year. All of you have contributed to getting the Foundation off the ground, and have thus entered history as Founding Sponsors. We will be making an official announcement in about two weeks, in order to catch up with the accounting.

What is Twisted? ¶

Twisted is an event-driven networking engine written in Python and licensed under the MIT license.

See the FAQ for commonly asked questions about Twisted.

If you want to get started with Twisted, the first thing you should do is read the Twisted Core Documentation.

Twisted projects variously support TCP, UDP, SSL/TLS, multicast, Unix sockets, a large number of protocols (including HTTP, NNTP, IMAP, SSH, IRC, FTP, and others), and much more.
