NoHttp is an Android networking framework that implements common HTTP request, response, caching, cookie, and download workflows. Applications can use HttpURLConnection by default or add the optional OkHttp execution layer. Global configuration controls connection and read timeouts, retries, headers, parameters, SSL behavior, and host verification. Cache data can be stored in a database or on disk, while cookie handling can use built-in or custom stores. The framework supports file downloads with automatic naming and resumable transfer when the server accepts range requests. Its sample application demonstrates cancellation and resume behavior by rebuilding interrupted download requests. The maintainer still supports NoHttp but recommends the newer Kalle framework for new projects.
