What is ``aioquic``?
--------------------

``aioquic`` is a library for the QUIC network protocol in Python. It is built
on top of ``asyncio``, Python's standard asynchronous I/O framework.

``aioquic`` features a minimal TLS 1.3 implementation built upon the
`cryptography`_ library. This is because QUIC requires some APIs which are
currently unavailable in mainstream TLS implementations such as OpenSSL:

- the ability to extract traffic secrets

- the ability to operate directly on TLS messages, without using the TLS
  record layer

Status
------

``aioquic`` is still a work in progress, and the API is not finalized.

Running the examples
--------------------

``aioquic`` requires Python 3.7 or better. After checking out the code using
git you can run:

.. code-block:: console

   $ pip install -e .

You can now run the example server:

.. code-block:: console

   $ python examples/server.py --certificate tests/ssl_cert.pem --private-key tests/ssl_key.pem

You can also run the example client, which will perform an HTTP/0.9 request:

.. code-block:: console

  $ python examples/client.py localhost 4433
