Discussion on: Have a Handy JS Snippet You Want to Share?

Let me break that up.

const response = await fetch('https://api.github.com/users/wesbos');

const data = await response.json(); //this gives us the JSON data from the response.

Previously it used to be,

fetch('https://api.github.com/users/wesbos')
.then(res => res.json()) //json() also returns a promise
.then(data => {console.log(data)});
