48k? Isn't github showing 4.4m? Everyone I see seems to use axios these days.

  Github shows which repositories use request. 48k is the number of modules on npm.

  > Everyone I see seems to use axios these days Axios was somewhat abandoned a year or so ago. A new collaborator was added in Dec 2019 which apparently is picking it up. https://github.com/axios/axios/issues/1965 https://github.com/axios/axios/issues/1965 Who knows for how long though...

    What would be the alternative to Axios?
    • pier25 7y ago
      On the browser I generally use fetch(). It's a bit weird at first but it's easy to write a thin wrapper if the default behavior doesn't make sense. Eg: throwing when you receive a 400 or 500. On Node I've been using this lately: https://github.com/node-fetch/node-fetch https://github.com/node-fetch/node-fetch
