Welcome to steam-trade!

steam-trade is an asynchronous, event based steam trading library. Steam-Trade want's you to focus on managing your script, and not have to deal with the bs steam gives developers. By utilizing modules such as asyncio and pyee, steam-trade makes your program run fast and effectively.

What is & Why asynchronous?

steam-trade is asynchronous, which means the program can do multiple things seemingly at the same time, without the need for threads. I choose this because not only does it work incredibly well with pyee, but this means it can manage multiple trades at once, or confirm a trade while managing a declined trade. For trading sites especially, this can be a blessing for performance.

Before you get started

Please make sure your comfortable with asyncio and asynchronous programming, while it's not hard, you must be able to grasp certain required concepts. And a warning, DO NOT USE REQUESTS I love it, we all do, however it will block asyncio, and slow your program down. If you need to, run it in a separate thread, however, I suggest trying aiohttp for web requests.
