  1. requests-cache

    Transparent persistent cache for python requests

    Hi there, I'm the current maintainer of requests-cache, which is a handy companion for almost any python application that uses the requests library. This was already a well-established project before I came along; it's coming up on its 10-year cake day next April, and credit goes to Roman Haritonov for creating and maintaining it for most of that time.

  3. aiohttp-client-cache

    An async persistent cache for aiohttp requests

    It had been in need of a new maintainer for awhile, and I saw that it was a solid library with lots of potential to be even better. I eventually decided to take on maintenance myself and pick up where Roman left off, and it's been a really enjoyable project to work on. I've also been working on aiohttp-client-cache, an async library with similar features, but made specifically for aiohttp.
