Description

Asynchronous DNS resolution can be added to Windows-targeted C applications without blocking the main program flow. This package is useful for developers building network clients, servers, and tools with mingw-w64.

It is a networking library, not a resolver app for end users. DNS behavior affects privacy and reliability, so configure timeouts, servers, and error handling carefully.
