I'm not sure about httpie but using curl with jq also gives nice formatted and coloured responses. curl ... | jq '.'

  jq is awesome, particularly if you need to filter or otherwise process JSON, but the great part about httpie is that it works with just about everything so you don't have to remember a different filter chain for each type of content. It uses pygments which means you also get nested formatting for e.g. CSS or JavaScript inside an HTML document.
