Why Diesel?

===========

You should write your next network application using diesel_.

Thanks to Python_ the syntax is clean and the development pace is rapid. Thanks

to non-blocking I/O it's fast and scalable. Thanks to greenlets_ there's

unwind(to(callbacks(no))). Thanks to nose_ it's trivial to test. Thanks to

Flask_ you don't need to write a new web framework using it.

It provides a clean API for writing network clients and servers. TCP and UDP

supported. It bundles battle-tested clients for HTTP, DNS, Redis, Riak and

MongoDB. It makes writing network applications fun.

Read the documentation, browse the API and join the community in #diesel on

freenode.

Prerequisites

=============

You'll need the `python-dev` package as well as libffi-dev, or your

platform's equivalents.
