The @brillout/fetch package uses window.fetch if run in the browser and uses node-fetch if run in Node.js. It works well with Webpack.

This means that no polyfill is used in the browser, saving KBs and delay for your users.

This is also means that IE11 is not supported.

With IE11's decline, not supporting IE11 is more and more an option. According to canisue IE11 is the only browser not supporting fetch: https://caniuse.com/#feat=fetch.

If you want IE11 then use another fetch library, see the list of fetch libraries bellow.

Usage

const fetch = require('@brillout/fetch'); // npm install @brillout/fetch

fetch('https://brillout-misc.github.io/game-of-thrones/characters/list.json')
.then(response => response.json())
.then(characters => console.log(characters))
