Web browsers -- LIKE THE THINGS THAT LIVE AND DIE ON HTTP -- didn't have an ergonomic HTTP API until 2017. Node.js got its production version in 2023. Rust doesn't include an HTTP client at all. Even for stdlib that have a client, virtually none support HTTP/3, which is used for 30% of web traffic. [1] -- HTTP (particularly 2+) is a complex protocol, with no single correct answers for high-level and low-level needs. [1] https://radar.cloudflare.com/adoption-and-usage |
