        What is this?
        -------------
        
        Twisted is an event-based framework for internet applications, supporting Python 2.7 and Python 3.5+.
        It includes modules for many different purposes, including the following:
        
        - ``twisted.web``: HTTP clients and servers, HTML templating, and a WSGI server
        - ``twisted.conch``: SSHv2 and Telnet clients and servers and terminal emulators
        - ``twisted.words``: Clients and servers for IRC, XMPP, and other IM protocols
        - ``twisted.mail``: IMAPv4, POP3, SMTP clients and servers
        - ``twisted.positioning``: Tools for communicating with NMEA-compatible GPS receivers
        - ``twisted.names``: DNS client and tools for making your own DNS servers
        - ``twisted.trial``: A unit testing framework that integrates well with Twisted-based code.
        
        Twisted supports all major system event loops -- ``select`` (all platforms), ``poll`` (most POSIX platforms), ``epoll`` (Linux), ``kqueue`` (FreeBSD, macOS), IOCP (Windows), and various GUI event loops (GTK+2/3, Qt, wxWidgets).
        Third-party reactors can plug into Twisted, and provide support for additional event loops.
        
        
        Installing
        ----------
        
        To install the latest version of Twisted using pip::
        
          $ pip install twisted
        
        Additional instructions for installing this software are in `the installation instructions <https://github.com/twisted/twisted/blob/trunk/INSTALL.rst>`_.
        
        
        Documentation and Support
        -------------------------
        
        Twisted's documentation is available from the `Twisted Matrix website <https://twistedmatrix.com/documents/current/>`_.
        This documentation contains how-tos, code examples, and an API reference.
        
        Help is also available on the `Twisted mailing list <https://twistedmatrix.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/twisted-python>`_.
        
        There is also a pair of very lively IRC channels, ``#twisted`` (for general Twisted questions) and ``#twisted.web`` (for Twisted Web), on ``chat.freenode.net``.
        
        
        Unit Tests
        ----------
        
        Twisted has a comprehensive test suite, which can be run by ``tox``::
        
          $ tox -l            # to view all test environments
          $ tox -e py27-tests # to run the tests for Python 2.7
          $ tox -e py35-tests # to run the tests for Python 3.5
        
        
        You can test running the test suite under the different reactors with the ``TWISTED_REACTOR`` environment variable::
        
          $ env TWISTED_REACTOR=epoll tox -e py27-tests
        
        
        Some of these tests may fail if you:
        
        * don't have the dependencies required for a particular subsystem installed,
        * have a firewall blocking some ports (or things like Multicast, which Linux NAT has shown itself to do), or
        * run them as root.
