Ultra simple async retrieval of resources or remote files over HTTP/HTTPS, acting as a CLI tool and convenience wrapper around node-fetch with built-in retry. Version 1.1.3 targets Node.js >=12.0.0. It provides a main `fetching` function with response type options (download, json, text, etc.) and convenience methods for GET, HEAD, OPTIONS, POST, PUT, PATCH, DELETE. Differentiates itself from plain node-fetch by adding file download (`wget`), retry logic, and simpler response-type handling. Active development, weekly releases.
