Framework examples for a JSON REST API
Last updated 2026-05-20
The same JSON calls — list, single, create, update, delete, auth, error handling — written across six HTTP clients. Pick your stack and copy.
Every page calls the live JsonExamples API (so the code is verifiable, not pseudocode), shows the canonical operations on /users, and links across to the related JSON example, API response example, and docs.
fetch()
Zero-dependency, native in the browser and Node 18+.
Axios
Automatic JSON, interceptors, and helpful defaults.
cURL
Terminal-first; great for runbooks and smoke tests.
Node.js
Server-side patterns: native fetch, https, streaming, timeouts.
Python
requests (sync) and a quick httpx (async) variation.
React
useEffect, SWR, and React Query with loading and error states.
