Maybe it’s time to give ye ol’ curl some competition.
The 2 tools that gained me the most insight into HTTP and how to properly use/debug/ it: varnish and curl. Absolutely crucial tools.

Just a normal tweet. A random thought, and you throw it out there into the world. The best part? Reactions!
@mattiasgeniar Curl is dead to me ever since http://t.co/pmqcG19xln came along.

Let’s say Tim is right. I’ll give HTTPie a shot.
In any case, the coloured output is a lot easier to digest. Now to get my hands on the syntax and the arguments – and the fact that curl's options have been hardwired into my brain for the last years.
Good luck HTTPie, you’re fighting against years of curl love for me. But I’ll give you the chance you deserve.
