Consuming HTTP APIs

• You can use the abp.ajax API as an extension of the jQuery.ajax API.
• You can use dynamic JavaScript client proxies to call server-side APIs, just like you can with JavaScript functions.
• You can generate static JavaScript client proxies at development time.

Let's begin with the first one – the abp.ajax API.
