 Having Taquito implemented in composable modules is a design choice to allow users to customize the modules to meet some of their specific needs.
 
 One of these needs might be the ability to **cancel** HTTP requests to optimize the network. Indeed, Taquito has heavy methods that make a lot of requests to the RPC. For example, in some cases, users might want to cancel almost immediately a call when using it in user interfaces. It is possible to incorporate some logic into the `HttpBackend` and `RpcClient` classes to fulfill this need.

 #### **Create a custom** `HttpBackend`  
-Create a class called `CancellableHttpBackend` which extends the `HttpBackend` class. Override the `createRequest` method to utilize an [AbortController](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/AbortController) to handle and capture abort signals. We also use [Axios](https://github.com/axios/axios) to send HTTP requests.

+We currently use the `AbortController` to timeout requests in the `HttpBackend` class. Plase note that this example will override the timeout functionality. If you want to keep the timeout functionality, you can add a custom timeout to call the cancelRequest method after a certain amount of time.
