Axios is a robust HTTP client for both browsers and Node.js that streamlines making asynchronous HTTP requests. Compared to traditional methods like Fetch API or XMLHttpRequest, Axios offers enhanced features such as request response interception, easier error management, and support for older browsers. This tutorial provides a practical overview that illustrates how to implement Axios in JavaScript for various HTTP methods, manage concurrent requests using Promise.all, and highlights its advantages over Fetch. Updated by David Omotayo in April 2025, the blog serves as an essential guide for developers seeking increased efficiency.
Axios is a simple, promise-based HTTP client for the browser and Node.js, providing a consistent way to send asynchronous HTTP requests and handle responses.
Developers favor Axios over Fetch for several reasons, including easier request and response interception, streamlined error handling, and support for upload progress.
With built-in support for older browsers and automatic JSON data transformation, Axios streamlines the coding process for users compared to traditional methods.
This tutorial illustrates how to make HTTP requests using Axios, including making requests with various methods and handling multiple requests with Promise.all.
