- AnyIO is an asynchronous networking and concurrency library that works on top of either asyncio_ or
- trio_. It implements trio-like `structured concurrency`_ (SC) on top of asyncio and works in harmony
- with the native SC of trio itself.
- Applications and libraries written against AnyIO's API will run unmodified on either asyncio_ or
- trio_. AnyIO can also be adopted into a library or application incrementally – bit by bit, no full
- refactoring necessary. It will blend in with the native libraries of your chosen backend.

- Features
- --------
- AnyIO offers the following functionality:
- * Task groups (nurseries_ in trio terminology)
- * High-level networking (TCP, UDP and UNIX sockets)
- * `Happy eyeballs`_ algorithm for TCP connections (more robust than that of asyncio on Python
- 3.8)
- * async/await style UDP sockets (unlike asyncio where you still have to use Transports and
- Protocols)
- * A versatile API for byte streams and object streams
- * Inter-task synchronization and communication (locks, conditions, events, semaphores, object
- streams)
- * Worker threads
- * Subprocesses
- * Asynchronous file I/O (using worker threads)
- * Signal handling
- AnyIO also comes with its own pytest_ plugin which also supports asynchronous fixtures.
- It even works with the popular Hypothesis_ library.
