!!! note
The 0.8 release switched HTTPX into focusing exclusively on providing an async
client. It is possible that we'll look at re-introducing a sync API at a
later date.
HTTPX should currently be considered in alpha. We'd love early users and feedback,
but would strongly recommend pinning your dependencies to the latest median
release, so that you're able to properly review API changes between package
updates. Currently you should be using `http==0.8.*`.
In particular, the 0.8 release switched HTTPX into focusing exclusively on
providing an async client, in order to move the project forward, and help
us [change our approach to providing sync+async support][sync-support]. If
you have been using the sync client, you may want to pin to `http==0.7.*`,
and wait until our sync client is reintroduced.
