Hello, can anybody please help me to understand why there is no netty as the HttpClient engine of choice? Is there any research or benchmarks or just at the theory stage they decided not to make such an implementation and to emphasize CIO?

I'd guess it's that Netty is only available on the JVM, and HttpClient's goal is to be multiplatform, so the focus wasn't on Netty? No clue though

Http4k doesn't have a client for Netty either. Wonder if it's a coincidence 🤔

It is just a coincidence. 🙃
