[Cthulhu_]

Every example in the article explicitly states HTTP 1.1, only at the end does it have a remark about how HTTP 2 and 3 don't have chunking as they have their own streaming mechanisms. The basic HTTP protocol is simple, but 2/3 are no longer the basic HTTP protocols.

[_ache_]

My point is HTTP isn't HTTP/1.1. There is a lot under the wood, even with HTTP/1.1. Actually, the fact that the whole article explains an implementation of an HTTP header is against the fact that it's simple.

So when the article say "All HTTP requests look something like this", that's false, that is not a big deal but it spread that idea that HTTP is easy and it's not.
