Usage

import asyncio
from impit import AsyncClient

async def main():
    impit = AsyncClient(http3=True, browser='firefox')

    response = await impit.get(
        "https://example.com",
    );

    print(response.status_code)
    print(response.text)
    print(response.http_version)

asyncio.run(main())

Impit implements the HTTPX client interface, so you can use it as a drop-in replacement for httpx.AsyncClient. Note that the implementation is partial and some features may not be supported yet.
