AnyIO is an asynchronous networking and concurrency library that works on top of either asyncio_ or
trio_. It implements trio-like structured concurrency_ (SC) on top of asyncio and works in harmony
with the native SC of trio itself.
Applications and libraries written against AnyIO's API will run unmodified on either asyncio_ or trio_. AnyIO can also be adopted into a library or application incrementally – bit by bit, no full refactoring necessary. It will blend in with the native libraries of your chosen backend.

AnyIO offers the following functionality:
Task groups (nurseries_ in trio terminology)
High-level networking (TCP, UDP and UNIX sockets)
Happy eyeballs_ algorithm for TCP connections (more robust than that of asyncio on Python
3.8)A versatile API for byte streams and object streams
Inter-task synchronization and communication (locks, conditions, events, semaphores, object streams)
Worker threads
Subprocesses
Asynchronous file I/O (using worker threads)
Signal handling
AnyIO also comes with its own pytest_ plugin which also supports asynchronous fixtures. It even works with the popular Hypothesis_ library.
