fetch vs xhr type? fetch is like the cool new kid, xhr is the grandpa who still gets the job done.

fetch:
- Promise-based
- Cleaner syntax
- Less boilerplate

xhr:
- Callback hell
- More verbose
- But you can track upload progress (fetch can’t do that natively)

If you don’t need legacy stuff, stick with fetch. For error handling, just add a `.catch` or check `response.ok`.
