When you first look at Responder, you might think of it as an entirely new, from scratch, API. But the reality is, is it's more of a reinterpretation
0:10
of existing frameworks. So, for example, two of the main building blocks of Responder are Starlette and API Star. We've talked about API Star already.

It's a cool way to build APIs of course from Tom Christie also of Django Rest Framework fame. And then Starlette is an ASGI framework
0:29
that really works well. So you'll see a lot of the features of Responder are really coming from, especially Starlette.

These two things are foundational elements for working with Responder and that's kind of cool because that means it's not entirely new
0:44
and from scratch, but it kind of builds on the work and the growth of these other frameworks.
