You might always wanted to write your own HTTP client from scratch. Or maybe you want to do it for some project you have planned, but you don’t want to necessarly overuse vendors code for code size and reliability reasons. Whatever it is, this post will try to explain each step of how you can get going with building a simple HTTP client and by the end of it, even shows code for how it might be implemented in C.
The greatest and most hated thing whenever writing any application is always, when something unexpected happens. Let it be uninitialized memory, some undefined reference in current context (for JavaScript the difference between a normal function and an arrow function), whenever something throws somewhere without any knowledge of where and why or if it is due to invalid state. It is especially a nightmare to debug when using a dynamic language, wherever I like to fallback to use print statements, as they are more clear and easier to use than any debugger I have come across.
