HTTP Client

Make your HTTP requests

As of 0.1.0, this feature has been moved to the kernel addons.

Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) is an application layer protocol in the Internet protocol suite model for distributed, collaborative, and hypermedia information systems. HTTP is the foundation of data communication for the World Wide Web, where hypertext documents include hyperlinks to other resources that the user can easily access, for example by a mouse click or by tapping the screen in a web browser.

The simulated kernel attempts to provide the request functionalities for the entire HTTP protocol by giving you the HTTP client, which is just a shell with HTTP request commands.
