Fetch vs Axios

The document compares the Fetch API and Axios for making HTTP requests in JavaScript, highlighting that Fetch is a native API requiring more setup while Axios is easier to use with built-in features. Fetch does not reject promises on HTTP error statuses and lacks support for interceptors, whereas Axios simplifies error handling and supports interceptors. Both are supported in modern browsers, but Axios also works with Internet Explorer 11 with a polyfill.

01

When comparing the Fetch API


with Axios for making HTTP
requests in JavaScript, there
are several points to consider
regarding ease of use,features,
and how they handle requests
and responses.
02

Fetch API: It's a native browser


API, so there's no need to install
any additional libraries. However, it
requires more setup for common
tasks like sending JSON data or
handling exceptions.

Axios: Easier to use out of the box


for common HTTP requests. It
automatically transforms JSON
data on requests and responses
and handles exceptions more
gracefully.
03

Fetch API: Does not reject the


promise on HTTP error statuses
(like 404 or 500). You need to
handle errors explicitly by
checking the response status.

Axios: Automatically rejects the


promise on HTTP error statuses,
which can simplify error handling
in your code.
04

Fetch API: Does not have built-


in support for intercepting
requests or responses.
Middleware or extra coding is
required to implement this
functionality.

Axios: Supports interceptors


that allow you to run your code
or modify the request/response
before the request is sent or
after the response is received.
05

Fetch API: Supported in all


modern browsers, but not in
Internet Explorer.

Axios: Works on all modern


browsers and Internet Explorer
11 (requires a Promise polyfill).
06

Fetch API: Requires manual


conversion of the JSON data in
the response body.

Axios: Automatically handles


JSON data conversion on
requests and responses.
