Twisted is an open source event-driven networking engine written in Python. It is designed to be lightweight, extensible, and easy to use. It can be used to create network-based applications such as network servers, clients, and distributed systems. Twisted provides an asynchronous I/O framework for building applications that require high performance networking. It supports protocols such as HTTP, SMTP, IMAP, IRC, and many more. It also provides an API for creating custom protocols. Twisted is built on top of the Python language and supports multiple operating systems. It is used in many applications such as web services, game servers, and distributed systems. Twisted is also used in projects such as the Apache web server and the BitTorrent file sharing system.
