This document is for readers new to Twisted who are familiar with the Python programming language and, at least conceptually, with core networking concepts such as servers, clients and sockets.
Resources are the lowest-level abstraction for applications in the Twisted web server. Each Resource is a 1:1 mapping with a path that is requested: you can think of a Resource as a single “page” to be rendered.

Reactor Overview This HOWTO introduces the Twisted reactor, describes the basics of the reactor and links to the various reactor interfaces. Reactor Basics The reactor is the core of the event loop within Twisted – the loop which drives applications using Twisted.
Twisted Web provides an abstraction of this browser-tracking behavior called the Session object . Calling request.getSession () checks to see if a session cookie has been set; if not, it creates a unique session id, creates a Session object, stores it in the Site, and returns it.
Twisted Internet is a collection of compatible event-loops for Python. It contains the code to dispatch events to interested observers and a portable API so that observers need not care about which event loop is running.
