urllib3

urllib3 is a powerful, user-friendly HTTP client for Python.

Why is urllib3 important?

  • Over 5 billion annual downloads, one of the top downloaded Python packages.
  • Direct dependency of pip, requests, and many other projects. If you use Python, then you rely on urllib3.
  • Actively maintained since 2008, that's over 15 years!
  • Our team is composed of long-time trusted stewards of the Python ecosystem. A lot of critical infrastructure relies on features that urllib3 brings which are missing from the Python standard library.

Our funds are transparently managed on OpenCollective, so any Github Sponsorships go directly into our OpenCollective fund pool which is allocated to grants for specific work.

You can follow our updates about upcoming releases and how we're using our funds: https://opencollective.com/urllib3/updates

@urllib3

Our code is used by the entire Python ecosystem, reaching 100 sponsors is our first step to getting more developers directly engaged with urllib3 to ensure a long and healthy future for HTTP in Python.
