How do I efficiently download files using curl? Tips and tricks needed!

Hey! I’ve been using curl for years, and here’s my go-to setup for smooth downloads:

- Use `-L` to follow redirects (some URLs need this).
- Add `--retry 5` to retry failed downloads automatically.
- For large files, `-C -` is a must, but pair it with `--silent` to avoid clutter in the terminal.

If you’re still struggling, try `httpie`—it’s a more user-friendly alternative to curl.
