Google Play Books has added new features aimed at helping new readers improve their vocabulary and comprehension independently. Google announced today that a new feature called “Reading Practice” is now available in the Google Play Books Android app and Google Kids Space in the US. This tool is intended for children from his 0 years old to her 8 years old.

Reading Practice helps early readers track where they are reading by highlighting text as it is read aloud. If your readers don’t know how to pronounce a word, they can touch it to hear how it sounds. If you need more help and want to pronounce a word, you can listen to the word broken down by syllables.

With this feature, you can listen to complete sentences and get child-friendly word definitions, giving your child more context about the story you’re reading. Readers can also tap any word to update their position in the book and start tracking from there. At the bottom of the page, you have the option to practice words that the reader has missed or mispronounced.

When it comes to web development, making HTTP requests is a fundamental aspect of building interactive and dynamic applications. JavaScript provides several techniques and libraries that simplify the process of sending HTTP requests and receiving responses. Today, I will show different approaches to making HTTP requests in JavaScript, highlighting their unique features and use cases.

1. XMLHttpRequest Object

The XMLHttpRequest (XHR) object is a built-in feature of JavaScript that enables asynchronous communication with a server. It has been the traditional method for making HTTP requests in JavaScript. XHR offers flexibility and control over the request, allowing you to handle events, set headers, and handle different response types. However, it requires more manual handling and can be verbose in code.

Example

var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
xhr.open('GET', 'https://api.example.com/data', true);
xhr.onreadystatechange = function() {
  if (xhr.readyState === 4 && xhr.status === 200) {
    var response = JSON.parse(xhr.responseText);
    console.log(response);
  }
};
xhr.send();

2. Fetch API

Introduced in modern browsers, the Fetch API offers a more modern and straightforward approach to making HTTP requests. It provides a promise-based interface and a simpler syntax compared to XHR, making it easier to use and read. Fetch supports various request methods, handles response types, and provides better error handling.

Example

fetch('https://api.example.com/data')
  .then(response => response.json())
  .then(data => console.log(data))
  .catch(error => console.error(error));

3. Axios

Axios is a popular JavaScript library for making HTTP requests, commonly used in both browser and Node.js environments. It encapsulates XHR and provides a simple and intuitive API, enhancing code readability and maintainability. Axios supports promises and offers features like request cancellation, interceptors, and automatic JSON parsing.

Example

axios.get('https://api.example.com/data')
  .then(response => console.log(response.data))
  .catch(error => console.error(error));

4. jQuery AJAX

jQuery, a widely-used JavaScript library, provides an AJAX method for making asynchronous HTTP requests. It simplifies the process with a concise syntax and cross-browser compatibility. However, note that using jQuery only for AJAX requests might not be necessary if you’re not using other jQuery features.

Example

$.ajax({
  url: 'https://api.example.com/data',
  method: 'GET',
  success: function(response) {
    console.log(response);
  },
  error: function(error) {
    console.error(error);
  }
});

Conclusion

Making HTTP requests in JavaScript is crucial for interacting with servers and fetching data in modern web applications. Whether you opt for the traditional XMLHttpRequest object, the modern Fetch API, the versatile Axios library, or the simplicity of jQuery AJAX, each approach has its strengths and fits different use cases. You can choose the method that aligns with your project’s requirements.

This is all for now. Hope you enjoy that.
