JAVASCRIPT

FETCH API
FETCH API

 Provides an interface for fetching (sending/receiving) resources.


 It uses Request and Response objects.
 The fetch() method is used to fetch a resource (data).

let promise = fetch(url, [options])


 If we are not sending any options, then the fetch method works on GET request type.
UNDERSTANDING TERMS

 AJAX is Asynchronous JS & XML


 JSON is Javascript Object Notation
 json() method: returns a second promise that resolves with the result of parsing the
response body text as JSON. (Input is JSON and outpt is JS object).
 Therefore json() is also asynchronous.
REQUESTS AND RESPONSE

 HTTP Verbs (GET, POST etc.)


 Response Status Code
 HTTP response headers also contain details about the responses, such as content type,
HTTP status codeetc.
