Top 3 Python HTTP Client Projects

HTTP Clients

  1. httpx

    A next generation HTTP client for Python. 🦋

    Project mention: Understanding Awaitables: Coroutines, Tasks, and Futures in Python | dev.to | 2025-03-24

    Let’s slowly build a fictional project, as a tool to explore more about asyncio in this series of articles. We start by defining a coroutine that simulates I/O operations, and use httpx to make HTTP requests. Given a national Pokédex ID, we want to return the name of the corresponding Pokémon.

  2. Judoscale

    Save 47% on cloud hosting with autoscaling that just works. Judoscale integrates with Django, FastAPI, Celery, and RQ to make autoscaling easy and reliable. Save big, and say goodbye to request timeouts and backed-up task queues.

  3. Niquests

    “Safest, Fastest, Easiest, and Most advanced” Python HTTP Client. Production Ready! Drop-in replacement for Requests. HTTP/1.1, HTTP/2, and HTTP/3 supported. With WebSocket, and SSE! Be free of Requests bondage now.

    Project mention: HTTP/3 is everywhere but nowhere | news.ycombinator.com | 2025-03-17

    I’ve been using niquests with Python. It supports HTTP/3 and a bunch of other goodies. The Python ecosystem has been kind of stuck on the requests package due to inertia, but that library is basically dead now. I’d encourage Python developers to give niquests a try. You can use it as a drop-in replacement for requests then switch to the better async API when you need to.
