I think Gun has very similar philosophy, e.g. it is connection oriented and does not impose pooling and such.
I'm excited to try out this library (or something built on top of it)! In my day to day work I use hackney, it's an awesome lib, but sometimes I struggle with documentation.

"mint elixir", unsurprisingly, mostly turns up beverages and mint-flavored medicinal things.

Nonsense, there's still plenty of available names out there. In unrelated news, be sure to check out my new project Asbhrjfuugwxcgxedzkyhbwf!
Why would you name your project after my password!?
Is it me or are we running out of names for things?
While I have qualms about the name since this is like the 20th Mint I've heard of now, I'm incredibly excited as to what this has to offer. The control over the underlying process is key to creating beautifully asynchronous applications, and it gives me a lot of node-got vibes in terms of how easy it is to use. And thank god, HTTPS support built in... it never ceases to amaze me why some HTTP libs don't have TLS as a…
> it never ceases to amaze me why some HTTP libs don't have TLS as a given Separation of concerns. TLS termination is something that can be done separately, and at scale you want to separate it anyway.
It took me a while to figure out whether this is an HTTP client library or a server library. Turns out it is the former. Nice! I like that it's in-process. I wish more Elixir libraries would default to such a design. (EDIT: I had accidentally written "latter" instead of "former" above, causing a bunch of people to correct me, thanks for that)
