Asyncio documentation

• Online doc: https://asyncio.readthedocs.io/
• GitHub: https://github.com/asyncio-doc/asyncio-doc
• AsyncIO documentation is written with Sphinx.

Notes to writers

Tutorials should use Python 3.5 async and await keywords rather than @asyncio.coroutine and yield from.

Ideas

• Advanced section:
  • protocols and transports: as least point to good implementations
  • explain how to test asyncio applications. Twisted documentation example

How to install Sphinx

Firstly, you need to install the Sphinx tool using the Linux package manager like apt-get or dnf for example.

But if you want to install it via pip , you can create a virtual environment with the venv module of Python 3

python3 -m venv env
source env/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt

Once you have installed Sphinx, you can build the documentation.

How to build the documentation

Install Sphinx using the Linux package manager like apt-get or dnf for example. Then build the documentation using:
