It’s surprisingly complex to do the simplest HTTP calls with the standard Java library. Resty hopes to change that.

Its focus is on simplicity and ease-of-use, often requiring only two lines of code to access RESTful web services.

Basic usage is very simple: Create a Resty instance, use authenticate method to add credentials, then call one of the content type specific methods. The idea is that the method name will convey the expected content type.
