+
+Gun `1.0.0` has been released!
+
+Gun is an HTTP/1.1, HTTP/2 and Websocket client
+for Erlang/OTP.
+
+Gun provides an asynchronous interface and will
+keep the connection open to the server, reconnecting
+as necessary.
+
+Gun has existed for many years as the test client
+for Cowboy and is now mature enough to receive a
+proper version. Gun is battle tested by customers
+and other users but is not the most well tested
+client there is.
+
+I have given the Cowboy treatment to the Gun manual:
+a separate page per function call with all kind
+of useful information, including examples. Since
+Gun provides an asynchronous interface, each message
+also has a separate manual page. Check it out:
+https://ninenines.eu/docs/en/gun/1.0/manual/
+
+Gun 1.0 comes with a number of undocumented features
+that you are welcome to try out. They include content
+handlers which can be used to decode content on the fly
+or Websocket handlers for implementing protocols directly
+inside the Gun process. They will be documented as
+part of the next few releases.
+
+You can donate to this project via
+https://salt.bountysource.com/teams/ninenines[BountySource].
+These funds are used to pay for additional servers for
+testing. A new server was added last month and allows
+me to test with additional Linux distributions Alpine,
+CentOS and Debian. Thanks in advance!
+
+As usual, feedback is appreciated, and issues or
+questions should be sent via Github tickets. Thanks!
