The `curio` package must be installed to use the Curio backend.

+
+AnyIO is an [asynchronous networking and concurrency library](https://anyio.readthedocs.io/) that works on top of either `asyncio` or `trio`. It blends in with native libraries of your chosen backend (defaults to `asyncio`).
+
+```python
+import httpx
+import anyio
+
+async def main():
+ async with httpx.AsyncClient() as client:
+ response = await client.get('https://www.example.com/')
+ print(response)
+
+anyio.run(main, backend='trio')
+```
+
+When instantiating a transport instance explicitly, for maximum consistency, the same `backend` parameter can be passed to `AsyncHTTPTransport`.
+```python
+transport = httpx.AsyncHTTPTransport(backend="trio")
+```
+

## Calling into Python Web Apps
Just as `httpx.Client` allows you to call directly into WSGI web applications,
