sneako/finch

Finch is an HTTP client library for Elixir that manages connection pools for HTTP/1.1 and HTTP/2 protocols. It provides a flexible, user-managed pool system that supports dynamic configuration, multiple connection strategies, and comprehensive observability through telemetry. The system handles connection lifecycle, request multiplexing, and error wrapping, allowing developers to isolate and scale HTTP traffic efficiently.

This period focused on introducing user-managed connection pools with tagging for isolation, alongside a major refactor to support HTTP/2 and Unix sockets. The architecture shifted to a pool-based system with standardized error handling and modernized dependencies.

This period focused on expanding the Finch library with full HTTP/2 support, including a new connection pool, streaming capabilities, and request multiplexing. It also introduced configurable pool worker selection strategies and dynamic resizing, while significantly expanding test coverage for both HTTP/1.1 and HTTP/2 protocols.
