Description

I've been trying Goldpinger out recently, and have been finding it useful already. I was looking through the code, and was curious why you chose to do http monitoring, rather than tcp or icmp pings?

Contributor guide

Research direction
Review the existing HTTP check implementation in the codebase and understand how Goldpinger performs connectivity checks. Then implement a TCP check following the same pattern.
