        An object accessible via HTTP at one or more URIs.  In Twisted Web,
        a resource is represented by an object which provides <code class="API"><a href="http://twistedmatrix.com/documents/12.1.0/api/twisted.web.resource.IResource.html" title="twisted.web.resource.IResource">twisted.web.resource.IResource</a></code> and most often is
        a subclass of <code class="API"><a href="http://twistedmatrix.com/documents/12.1.0/api/twisted.web.resource.Resource.html" title="twisted.web.resource.Resource">twisted.web.resource.Resource</a></code>.  For example, here
        is a resource which represents a simple HTML greeting.
