Bindings to JavaScript's built in HTTP client, `fetch`.
```gleam
import gleam/fetch
import gleam/http/request
import gleam/http/response
import gleam/javascript/promise
pub fn main() {
let assert Ok(req) = request.to("https://example.com")
// Send the HTTP request to the server
use resp <- promise.try_await(fetch.send(req))
use resp <- promise.try_await(fetch.read_text_body(resp))
// We get a response record back
resp.status
// -> 200
response.get_header(resp, "content-type")
// -> Ok("text/html; charset=UTF-8")
promise.resolve(Ok(Nil))
}
```
