Uvicorn is a lightning-fast ASGI server implementation, using [uvloop][uvloop] and [httptools][httptools].

Until recently Python has lacked a minimal low-level server/application interface for
asyncio frameworks. The [ASGI specification][asgi] fills this gap, and means we're now able to
start building a common set of tooling usable across all asyncio frameworks.

Uvicorn currently supports HTTP/1.1 and WebSockets. Support for HTTP/2 is planned.

## Quickstart

Install using `pip`:

```shell
$ pip install uvicorn
```

Create an application, in `example.py`:

```python
async def app(scope, receive, send):
    assert scope['type'] == 'http'

    await send({
        'type': 'http.response.start',
        'status': 200,
        'headers': [
            [b'content-type', b'text/plain'],
        ],
    })
    await send({
        'type': 'http.response.body',
        'body': b'Hello, world!',
    })
```

Run the server:

```shell
$ uvicorn example:app
```
