userAgent = "my fancy UA"
6
}

8
response { // 🍉 <-- response will make actual HTTP request and convert its response to a Result object
9
// the scope of 'this' inside the response lambda is Result!
10
// that means you can directly call any field or function of Result here.
11
12
// e.g. print the response body
13
println(responseBody)
14
15
// the last thing called inside the response lambda will be returned

// e.g. the status code

status { code }
