HTTP (HyperText Transfer Protocol) is the foundation of data exchange on the web. Every web page, API call, image, stylesheet, and script reaches its destination through HTTP. Clients send requests to servers, servers return responses, and intermediaries like proxies and CDNs relay messages between them. HTTP is part of the internet protocol suite alongside DNS, TLS, and TCP. Every web page, including this one, reaches the browser through an HTTP request and response. HTTP follows a request-response model. A client sends a request specifying an HTTP method (the action), a URL (the resource), and Headers (metadata).

Talanoa▲346Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself.
