request.js

Probably the most lightweight / simple Javscript request library.

why?

It does one thing and it does it well.

Usage:

    //request(<endpoint>, <type>, <data>, <callback_function>)

    request("/api/registeruser", 'PUT', {"name": "John"}, function(data) {
        console.log(data);
    });

Install using npm
