Customizing HTTP Requests

This video tutorial covers how to use the request module in Node.js to automatically parse JSON responses, focusing on weather data from the Dark Sky and Weather Stack APIs. It explains how to customize API requests, change language and units, and print weather forecasts. The tutorial also demonstrates using browser tools to explore JSON data and includes a challenge to fetch data from a new API.
