How to make outbound HTTP calls with BetterHttpClient (SnowBank.Networking.Http) in an ASP.NET Core or generic-host .NET application - the DI story and the request API. Covers the one-policy-plane model where a client NAME maps to one effective policy that lives in the pooled handler chain, so every client gets the same behavior: a typed client, a keyed client, IHttpClientFactory.CreateClient(name), and the bare IHttpMessageHandlerFactory.CreateHandler(name). Covers AddBetterHttpClientDefaults (routes every factory client through the map), AddBetterHttpClient(name, ...) returning an IBetterHttpClientBuilder for standard chaining (AddHttpMessageHandler, AddAsKeyed, typed clients), the AddBetterHttpClientConfiguration override layer bound from an appsettings section, the mandatory INetworkMap transport seam (NetworkMap in production, the virtual network inside distributed tests, with packet capture on every chain automatically), BetterHttpClientOptions (default headers and UserAgent,…
