Advantage:

• Configurable (maybe better performance on iOS/Adroid through ModernHttpClient)

Disadvantage:

• Behaves differently on different platforms

Changes

Small example

The following is an example to get the ticker from the bitstamp.net website.

The result class

public class TickerResult
{
	public decimal Last { get; set; }
	public decimal High { get; set; }
	public decimal Low { get; set; }
	public decimal Volume { get; set; }
	public decimal Bid { get; set; }
	public decimal Ask { get; set; }
}

We use the class with:

using (var client = new RestClient(new Uri("https://www.bitstamp.net/api/")))
{
    var request = new RestRequest("ticker", Method.GET);
    var result = await client.Execute<TickerResult>(request);
}
