Introduction
In this tutorial we learn how to install python3-gevent on CentOS 8.
What is python3-gevent
gevent is a coroutine-based Python networking library that uses greenlet to provide a high-level synchronous API on top of libevent event loop. Features include * convenient API around greenlets * familiar synchronization primitives (gevent.event, gevent.queue) * socket module that cooperates * WSGI server on top of libevent-http * DNS requests done through libevent-dns * monkey patching utility to get pure Python modules to cooperate Python 3 version.
