# RestSharp - Simple .NET REST Client

RestSharp is a lightweight HTTP API client library. It's a wrapper around `HttpClient`, not a full-fledged client on 
its own.

What RestSharp adds to `HttpClient`:
- Default parameters of any kind, not just headers
- Add a parameter of any kind to requests, like query, URL segment, header, cookie, or body
- Multiple ways to add a request body, including JSON, XML, URL-encoded form data, multipart form data with and 
  without files
- Built-in serialization and deserilization of JSON, XML, and CSV, as well as the ability to add custom serializers
- Rich support for authentication

## Compatibility note

RestSharp 107 was a major release that brings a lot of changes. We've removed a lot of legacy code and added new 
features. Finally, RestSharp has moved to `HttpClient`. We also deprecated the following:
- SimpleJson in favour of `System.Text.Json.JsonSerialzer`
- `IRestRequest`, and `IRestResponse` in favour of implementing classes
- Everything `Http` and `IHttp` as those are just wrappers
- Client configuration moved to `RestClientOptions` to make the client thread-safe
- `IRestClient` interface surface substantially reduced

Most of the client and some of the request options are now in `RestClientOptions`.
