axios is heavily inspired by the [$http service](https://docs.angularjs.org/api/ng/service/$http) provided in [Angular](https://angularjs.org/). Ultimately axios is an effort to provide a standalone `$http`-like service for use outside of Angular.
axios uses the [es6-promise](https://github.com/jakearchibald/es6-promise) polyfill by [Jake Archibald](https://github.com/jakearchibald). Until we [can use](http://caniuse.com/promises) ES6 Promises natively in all browsers, this polyfill is a life saver.
