What's the difference between Axios and Fetch for making API calls?

Axios and Fetch are both used to make HTTP requests, but Axios has built-in features like interceptors and automatic JSON data transformation.

Can you show me a basic example of how to use both?

Sure! For Fetch: fetch(url).then(response => response.json()).then(data => console.log(data)); For Axios: axios.get(url).then(response => console.log(response.data));

Which one is better for error handling?

Axios automatically rejects the promise for HTTP error statuses, while Fetch requires you to check the response status manually.

Is there a performance difference between the two?

Generally, both perform similarly, but Axios may have a slight overhead due to its additional features.
