httpinvoke – js HTTP client - easy progress events, binary files, etc.

In plain words

httpinvoke is an HTTP client library for JavaScript that works in both browsers and Node.js environments. It provides a promise-based or callback-based API for making HTTP requests without requiring external dependencies. The library supports progress event tracking, binary and text file uploads and downloads, partial response bodies, custom headers, and status code handling. It is designed for developers who need straightforward HTTP functionality with granular control over request and response details.
