HTTP requests

HTTP requests are how your app talks to a server to send or get data. For example, when a user logs in or loads a list of posts, the app makes an HTTP request to the server. There are different types of requests: GET to fetch data, POST to send new data, PUT/PATCH to update, and DELETE to remove. These requests are sent over the internet using the HTTP protocol. In JavaScript, you can make these requests using tools like fetch or libraries like Axios. It's a key part of building apps that work with APIs or backends.
