<title>GIO Networking</title>

<p>Built on top of the stream APIs used for files, GIO provides
high-level networking APIs to communicate over TCP/IP and UNIX
domain sockets. You can use the GIO networking APIs to connect
to a server, listen for events, and read resources. The
asynchronous API designs means your application doesn't block
waiting for a response.</p>
