-    # A simple client for connecting with http resources.
+    # HTTP client with connection pooling, automatic retries, and JSON-first defaults.
+    # 
+    # The Client class provides the core HTTP functionality for Net::Hippie, supporting
+    # all standard HTTP methods with intelligent defaults for JSON APIs. Features include:
+    #
+    # * Connection pooling and reuse per host
+    # * Automatic retry with exponential backoff
+    # * Redirect following with configurable limits  
+    # * TLS/SSL support with client certificates
+    # * Comprehensive timeout configuration
+    # * Pluggable content-type mapping
+    #
+    # @since 0.1.0
+    #
+    # == Basic Usage
+    #
+    #   client = Net::Hippie::Client.new
+    #   response = client.get('https://api.github.com/users/octocat')
+    #   data = JSON.parse(response.body)

+    # == Advanced Configuration
+    #
+    #   client = Net::Hippie::Client.new(
+    #     read_timeout: 30,
+    #     open_timeout: 10,
+    #     follow_redirects: 5,
+    #     headers: { 'User-Agent' => 'MyApp/1.0' }
+    #   )
+    #
+    # == Retry Logic
+    #
+    #   # Automatic retries with exponential backoff
+    #   response = client.with_retry(retries: 3) do |c|
