The REST API client for Open edX REST API allows users to communicate with various edX REST APIs.
It is based on https://github.com/edx/edx-rest-api-client, whith a few differences:

- It does not depend on Django
- What is called 'the client' in edX's version is now called 'session'.
- As the edX's version relies on Django's cache, now the token is stored in memory under the scope of the session object
- The client here encompasses the session, and one function per REST API entry point

Part of the code is also taken from Opencraft's `implementation of the openedx client`_.
