How to properly receive HTTP response in JSON object? Best practices? or Struggling to receive HTTP r

Pro tip: Use `response.headers.get('Content-Type')` to see if it’s actually JSON. Some APIs are sneaky and send text/html or something weird.

For error handling, I like this pattern:

```
if (!response.ok) throw new Error(await response.text());
const data = await response.json();
```

And yeah, axios is easier but fetch is built-in. Tradeoffs!
