### Getting started with the network-socket API ### This is a quick example of a simple HTTP client program using the network-socket API that is provided as a part of [mbed-os](github.com/armmbed/mbed-os). The program brings up an underlying network interface, and uses it to perform an HTTP transaction over a TCPSocket. **Note:** The current example is limited to the ethernet interface on supported devices. To use the example with a different interface, you will need to modify main.cpp and replace the EthernetInterface class with the appropriate interface. ### Documentation ### More information on the network-socket API can be found in the [mbed handbook](https://docs.mbed.com/docs/mbed-os-api-reference/en/5.1/APIs/communication/network_sockets/).
