What library to use for REST requests in JS?

Question

JavaScript

It is necessary to send requests from the client in the browser to the API on the server. You can use fetch or axios - but it's more like RPC. There should be a convenient library for configuring API requests.

Answer 1

Good day!
Requests from the browser to the api on the server are called Ajax requests. In some sense it can be called RPC.
To make such requests, there are axios libraries, part of the jQuery library, and probably something else.
fetch is a modern web api for working with Ajax requests, so it's worth learning this tool and using it where compatibility with older browsers is not very important.
If compatibility is important, use axios.
