## What it is
socketify.py is a high-performance Python web framework providing HTTP/HTTPS and WebSocket servers built on uSockets and libuv, optimized for both PyPy3 and CPython. It offers routing, middlewares, templates, pub/sub WebSockets, and can also serve as an ASGI/WSGI server.

## Use cases
- build a fast http server in python
- serve websockets with pubsub in python
- run an asgi server faster than uvicorn
- host a wsgi flask app with better performance
- build large-scale python backends and microservices
- serve tls 1.3 https traffic at high throughput
- handle websocket backpressure and compression

## When to choose
- you need maximum HTTP/WebSocket throughput from Python, especially on PyPy
- you want a simple API for routing, middlewares, and websockets in one framework
- you need an alternative ASGI/WSGI server with better performance

## When to avoid
- you need full asyncio ecosystem integration or HTTP/3 today
- you rely on pure-Python portability since libuv and zlib system dependencies are required
- you need a very mature, battle-tested framework like Django or FastAPI for complex apps

## Facets
- artifact type: framework
- maturity: active
- function: web-framework, http-server, websocket, routing, middleware, templating, ssr
- domain: web-development, backend, apis, performance
- platform: python, windows, cross-platform
- tags: pypy, asgi, wsgi, uwebsockets, libuv, high-performance, pubsub, tls, real-time, linux, macos
