# Python Requests Client

## Quick Start (with runnable code examples)

```python
import requests

# Perform a basic request
r = requests.get("https://api.github.com/events")
print(r.status_code)
# Parse JSON directly
data = r.json()
```

## Advanced Usage
Manage session pools (`requests.Session()`), configure connection and read timeouts, handle multipart uploads, and handle SSL certificate validations.
