Twisted Web
-----------

`Twisted Web`_ is the web server shipped with `Twisted`_, a mature,
non-blocking event-driven networking library. Twisted Web comes with a
standard WSGI container which can be controlled from the command line using
the ``twistd`` utility::

twistd web --wsgi myproject.app

This example will run a Flask application called ``app`` from a module named
``myproject``.

Twisted Web supports many flags and options, and the ``twistd`` utility does
as well; see ``twistd -h`` and ``twistd web -h`` for more information. For
example, to run a Twisted Web server in the foreground, on port 8080, with an
application from ``myproject``::

twistd -n web --port 8080 --wsgi myproject.app
