How can I improve the performance of my API calls using Axios?

You can improve performance by using features like request cancellation, batching requests, and setting timeouts.

What is request cancellation and how do I implement it?

Request cancellation allows you to abort ongoing requests. You can implement it using the CancelToken feature in Axios.

Can you show me a code example for request cancellation?

Sure! Here's a simple example:

const CancelToken = axios.CancelToken;
let cancel;

axios.get('/api/data', {
  cancelToken: new CancelToken(function executor(c) {
    cancel = c;
  })
}).catch(function (thrown) {
  if (axios.isCancel(thrown)) {
    console.log('Request canceled', thrown.message);
  } else {
    // handle error
  }
});

// To cancel the request
cancel('Operation canceled by the user.');
