starlette 0.52.1

Starlette is a lightweight ASGI (Asynchronous Server Gateway Interface) framework/toolkit, ideal for building asynchronous web services in Python. It is production-ready and offers a range of features including HTTP web framework, WebSocket support, in-process background tasks, startup and shutdown events, and a test client built on HTTPX. Starlette also supports CORS, GZIP, static files, streaming responses, and session and cookie support. It is compatible with asyncio and trio backends and boasts great overall performance against independent benchmarks. The package can be used as a complete framework or as an ASGI toolkit, allowing for the use of any of its components independently. It requires Python 3.8+ and an ASGI server such as uvicorn, daphne, or hypercorn for operation.
