Simplified JSON HTTP Client

request-json is a Node.js HTTP client specifically designed to streamline interactions with JSON APIs. It acts as a wrapper around the now-deprecated `request` library, simplifying common tasks like sending and receiving JSON payloads, handling basic authentication, and uploading/downloading files. Currently at version 0.6.5, the package has seen no updates for several years, effectively rendering it unmaintained. Its core differentiator was abstracting away some complexities of the underlying `request` library, offering a more fluent API for JSON-centric operations and basic promise support via `.then()`. Due to its fundamental dependency on the unmaintained `request` package, `request-json` should be considered unstable and potentially insecure for new projects, with no ongoing release cadence.
