+# http
+
+A rust http parsing library
+
+### Example
+
+```rs
+use http::{request::Request, parse::TryParse, error::HTTPError, response::Response, status, header::HeaderName};
+
+fn main() -> Result<(), HTTPError> {
+
+    // http request as a string
+    let request_str =   "GET / HTTP/1.1\n\
+                         Host: www.example.com\n\
+                         User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0\n\
+                         Accept-language: en\n\
+                         \n\
+                        ";
+
+                            // here we set what we want the body to be parsed into if it exists
+                            // the body type must implement FromStr and ToString
+    let request = Request::<String>::try_parse(request_str)?; // try parse since it can fail
+
+    let mut response = Response::<String>::new(); // create a new response
+    response
+            .set_body("hello world!") // add a body that is Into<T>
+            .set_status(status::SUCCESS) // set the status
+            .add_header((HeaderName::try_from("Content-Type")?, "text/plain")); // set content-type header
+
+    let response_str = response.to_string(); // get http response in text form
+
+    Ok(())
+}
