Plain Sockets Example Client

============================

This example is a basic HTTP/2 client written using plain Python `sockets`_, and

`ssl`_ TLS/SSL wrapper for socket objects.

This client is *not* a complete production-ready HTTP/2 client and only intended

as a demonstration sample.

This example shows the bare minimum that is needed to send an HTTP/2 request to

a server, and read back a response body.
