> A quick map of what the ecosystem offers, so you know what to reach for.

## The ecosystem map

`requests` — simple HTTP calls. `numpy`/`pandas` — numerical & tabular data. `flask`/`django`/`fastapi` — web backends. `pytest` — testing.

## requests in one line

A one-line taste of `requests` — fetching data from an API without writing raw socket code.

```python
import requests

response = requests.get("https://api.github.com")
print(response.status_code)   # 200
print(response.json().keys())
```
