installing and using curl commands on an esp32

Question

I have been trying to understand and install curl on visual studio code so I can use curl commands with my esp32. However I just can't get it to work, everything is very daunting to me and I understand very little of what tutorials offer me. Most of them operate with Linux and enter weird commands. I work on windows and I have absolutely no idea how to use all of those weird command lines. I am trying to make an Http Post request to a web server. Could someone help me setup curl so I can make a simple Http Post request and send a single JSON string in visual studio code? After all this information bombed on me in the last hour, I just can't see any logic. So after a few days, I finally resorted to asking on here. In advance: Thank you so much for your help.

Try this vs code extension mkloubert.vscode-http-client accessible here https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=mkloubert.vscode-http-client

Or the postman desktop app
