Discussion on: React Query vs useSWR

[sakethk]

SWR will not cancel processing tasks while react-query will do that on these aspect react-query is bit ahead.

[Rense Bakker]

From React Query documentation:

By default, queries that unmount or become unused before their promises are resolved are not cancelled.

Both React Query and SWR work with providing your own fetcher. Cancelling requests depends on what fetcher you use...

// Example abort with fetch:
const controller = new AbortController()
fetch('https://google.com', { signal: controller.signal }))
controller.abort()

// Example abort with axios
const source = axios.CancelToken.source()
axios.get('https://google.com', { cancelToken: source.token })
source.cancel()
