  • redaxios

    The Axios API, as an 800 byte Fetch wrapper.

  • Once you start to handle all the corner-cases of the fetch, you will find that you don't want to repeat the boilerplate each time you call network, so you will write some wrapper around the fetch or use redaxios library from Jason Miller, which provides axios-like API on top of fetch so it weights only 800 bytes, which is nice. But then you might need the axios interceptors which redaxios do not implement and if your application upload files and you want to track the upload progress with ProgressEvent, the fetch does not support that, only XMLHttpRequest does, on which the original axios is based. And after you write all your custom wrappers around fetch and upload wrappers around XMLHttpRequest, you might reconcider the original statement, that axios library is obsoleted.
