Hopefully coding it along the way helps it not feel like such a big task.

## A ColdBox HTTP Builder
## A CFML HTTP Builder

### Inspiration

Hyper was built after coding several API SDK's for various platforms — [S3SDK](https://github.com/coldbox-modules/s3sdk), [cbstripe](https://github.com/coldbox-modules/cbox-stripe), and [cbgithub](https://github.com/elpete/cbgithub), to name a few. I noticed that I spent a lot of time setting up the plumbing for the requests and a wrapper around `cfhttp`. Each implementation was mostly the same but slightly different. It was additionally frustrating because I really only needed to tweak a few values, usually just the `Authorization` header. It would be nice to create an HTTP client pre-configured for each of these SDK's. It seemed the perfect fit for a module.
