Web methods

HTTP operations are accessed through the global web object.

fetch

Fetches the contents of a URL and returns the response body as a String. Returns an empty string on error.

let body = web.fetch("example.com")
print(body)

(As with everything) fetch can be spawned to run concurrently:

let handler = spawn web.fetch("example.com")
print("fetching...")
print(await handler)
