# WebClient 

###
Companion object WebClient

#### class WebClient extends AnyRef

An asynchronous HTTP / HTTP/2 client called `WebClient`.

The web client makes easy to do HTTP request/response interactions with a web server, and provides advanced features like:

- Json body encoding / decoding
- request/response pumping
- error handling

The web client does not deprecate the , it is actually based on it and therefore inherits its configuration and great features like pooling. The `HttpClient` should be used when fine grained control over the HTTP requests/response is necessary.
