Code exercises to help you solidify your knowledge of fetch

Sometimes it's helpful to review the basic building blocks of front end development. In this repo you'll find a few short exercises you can do to (re)familiarize yourself with the fetch function.

This repo asks you to write two wrapper functions, get and post, that make interacting with the base fetch api easier (and add some light additional functionality).

To get started

1. Clone repo
2. Run yarn
3. Run yarn start. You should see a page of failing tests on localhost:8000.
4. Write code in index.js to solve the tests.

Hints

1. Use the debugger statement liberally to introspect what is being returned by your fetch calls.
2. The tests expect your function to return an object that looks like this: { data: {}, error: {} }, with either data or error keys depending on whether the fetch request succesfully completed.
3. Possible solutions can be found in the solutions branch.
