Hello cURL subscribers,
I code in node.js and recently wanted to use cURL in a node.js environment.
I noticed that while there are some modules that say they are cURL, most
are not actually based on curl, which sometimes results in cURL not getting
blocked, while the nodejs version gets blocked. I think that if cURL (or
somebody else) made an “official” cURL API that you could send POST
requests to (and get the curl response back), cURL would instantly get
multilingual support. All you would have to do is write a VERY simple
wrapper around this API to request the cURL response and send it to the
client, which you (in theory) could use on any coding language. I am not
sure if this is the purpose of cURL (as it is a command—line interface
tool), but i think that it could be really useful.

Thanks for reading
