piaf
An OCaml HTTP client library supporting HTTP/1.X and HTTP/2 protocols.
What is piaf?
Piaf is an HTTP client library written entirely in OCaml that supports both HTTP/1.X and HTTP/2 protocols. It provides a native, type-safe way for OCaml applications to make HTTP requests, eliminating the need for external C bindings or wrappers. The library integrates with Eio, OCaml's effects-based I/O system, offering both synchronous and asynchronous request patterns.
OCaml developers building applications that require HTTP client functionality, particularly those using Eio for concurrency and I/O. It's suitable for projects needing reliable, type-safe HTTP communication with support for modern protocols.
Developers choose Piaf for its pure OCaml implementation, seamless Eio integration, and support for both HTTP/1.X and HTTP/2 in a single library. Its type-safe API reduces runtime errors while providing modern protocol support without external dependencies.
