        Overview
        --------
        
        circuits is a **Lightweight** **Event** driven and **Asynchronous**
        **Application Framework** for the `Python Programming Language`_
        with a strong **Component** Architecture.
        
        circuits also includes a lightweight, high performance and scalable
        HTTP/WSGI compliant web server as well as various I/O and Networking
        components.
        
        To take full advantage of circuits and its architecture, circuits
        requires that your application be designed in terms of components
        and their interactions (*events*) with each other. An application
        written using the circuits application framework is maintainable,
        scalable and easy to develop.
        
        circuits' **Loosely Coupled** **Component Architecture** allows for a
        high level of **Reuse** and **Scalability**. Components are **Componsable**
        and much of the component library that circuits ships with are implemented
        as composed components.

        Features
        --------
        
        - event driven
        - concurrency support
        - component archiecture
        - asynchronous I/O components
        - no required external dependencies
        - full featured web framework (circuits.web)
        - coroutine based synchronization primitives
        
        
        Requirements
        ------------
        
        - circuits has no dependencies beyond the `Python Standard Library`_.
        - Python: >= 2.6
        
        
        Installation
        ------------
        
        The simplest and recommended way to install circuits is with pip.
        You may install the latest stable release from PyPI with pip::
        
            > pip install circuits
        
        If you do not have pip, you may use easy_install::
        
            > easy_install circuits
        
        Alternatively, you may download the source package from the
        `PyPi Page`_ or the `Downloads page`_ on the
        `Website`_; extract it and install using::
        
            > python setup.py install

        Feedback
        --------
        
        We welcome any questions or feedback about bugs and suggestions on how to
        improve circuits. Let us know what you think about circuits. `@pythoncircuits <http://twitter.com/pythoncircuits>`_.
        
        Do you have suggestions for improvement? Then please `Create an Issue`_
        with details of what you would like to see. I'll take a look at it and
        work with you to either incorporate the idea or find a better solution.
        
        
        Community
        ---------
        
        There is also a small community of circuits enthusiasts that you may
        find on the `#circuits IRC Channel`_ on the `FreeNode IRC Network`_
        and the `Mailing List`_.
