# Limitra

**A Modern Python Library for Rate Limiting Algorithms**

Limitra is not a framework. It is a pure Python library that provides clean, efficient, production-ready implementations of the most widely used rate limiting algorithms through a unified API.

Think of it as what NumPy is for numerical arrays — but for rate limiting.

## Philosophy

1. **Pure Python** — No framework dependency. Use in APIs, CLIs, games, bots, IoT, workers, scripts.
2. **Algorithm First** — Every algorithm is exposed individually with academically correct implementations.
3. **Unified API** — Identical interface across all algorithms. Swap with one line change.
4. **Lightweight** — Zero dependencies. No Redis. No database. No HTTP framework.
5. **Highly Tested** — Edge case, concurrency, and benchmark tests for every algorithm.
