The result of the HTTP.get invocation is an object that closely mirrors a raw HTTP response. The package makes our lives easier by extracting the raw HTTP data and neatly setting it up in a data structure, which makes manipulating it a breeze.
Let's take a look at its properties (or fields in Julia's lingo):
