A **fast** and **correct** HTTP implementation for Rust.
|
|
|
|
**Get started** by looking over the [guides](https://hyper.rs/guides).
|
|
|
|
## Overview
|
|
|
|
hyper is a fast, safe HTTP implementation written in and for Rust.
|
|
|
|
hyper offers both an HTTP client and server which can be used to drive
|
|
complex web applications written entirely in Rust.
|
|
|
|
hyper makes use of "async IO" (non-blocking sockets) via the
|
|
[Tokio](https://tokio.rs) and [Futures](https://docs.rs/futures) crates.
|
|
|
|
Be aware that hyper is still actively evolving towards 1.0, and is likely
|
|
to experience breaking changes before stabilising. However, this mostly now
|
|
around the instability of `Future` and `async`. The rest of the API is rather
|
|
stable now. You can also see the
|
|
[issues in the upcoming milestones](https://github.com/hyperium/hyper/milestones).
