Hutool 39 -

    <version>3.9.0</version>
</dependency>

Making a GET or POST request in native Java is verbose. Hutool makes it a one-liner.

// Simple GET request
String response = HttpUtil.get("https://api.example.com/data");

// POST with parameters HashMap<String, Object> paramMap = new HashMap<>(); paramMap.put("username", "hutool"); paramMap.put("password", "123456"); String result = HttpUtil.post("https://api.example.com/login", paramMap);

Hutool 3.9 won’t win a design award. It’s not elegant in a functional-programming sense.
But it will save you from writing the same if (s == null || s.trim().isEmpty()) for the thousandth time.

Add it to your pom.xml:

<dependency>
    <groupId>cn.hutool</groupId>
    <artifactId>hutool-all</artifactId>
    <version>3.9.0</version>
</dependency>

Then start coding like Java was meant to be: productive, not pedantic.
