Bocadillo (original) (raw)

What is Bocadillo?

Bocadillo is a Python asynchronous and ASGI web framework that makes building performant and highly concurrent web APIs fun and accessible to everyone.

Bocadillo is an ASGI web framework designed to help you build, test and deploy web APIs as easily as possible. It focuses on modularity, has thorough documentation, and integrates seamlessly with third-party async libraries.

Embrace asynchronous programming and use the built-in WebSocket and SSE support to design real-time, highly-concurrent systems.

Bocadillo makes the most out of Starlette and Uvicorn, the lightning-fast ASGI toolkit and web server.
