What happens when you connect with a web application or web service using HTTP? The server can return text or data in multiple formats, including HTML, JSON, XML, binary, and many others. Also, the language or framework used to write the server-side application or service doesn't matter. For instance, a web application or service that you connect with might be written using PHP, Node, Spring, C#, Ruby on Rails, or others.

Let's work with some simple use cases, such as connecting to a web server using GET or POST requests, synchronously or asynchronously, submitting request data, and receiving the response and storing it using multiple formats.
