I'm curious about the process of network requests. How does a request get initiated, travel through the network, and reach its destination? What happens after the destination receives and processes the request?

The server's response to the client's request is encapsulated in an HTTP response message. This message follows a similar structure to the request, comprising a status line, a header section, and a message body.

The status line in the response conveys the outcome of the server's processing of the request. It includes a status code, which indicates whether the request was successful, resulted in an error, or required further action from the client.

When a client, such as a web browser, desires to access a resource hosted on a server, it formulates an HTTP request and sends it to the server's address. This request contains essential details about the client's intentions and the desired resource.

The header section in the response contains metadata about the response itself, such as the content type, length, and encoding. This information is crucial for the client to correctly interpret and display the response's content.
