Frisbee is a modern fetch-based HTTP client library for JavaScript, positioned as an alternative to axios, superagent, and request. It wraps the WHATWG fetch API with a convenient class-based interface and works well in React Native, browsers, and Node.js.

Use cases

• make http api calls from react native apps
• replace axios with a fetch-based client
• upload files with form-data in javascript
• wrap rest api calls with a base uri and default headers
• use fetch with promises in node.js
• get raw fetch response for arrayBuffer or blob handling

When to choose

• you prefer the fetch API over XMLHttpRequest-based clients
• you are building a React Native or browser app and want a lightweight axios alternative
• you need simple default headers, baseURI, and form-data file uploads

When to avoid

• you need interceptors, automatic retries, or advanced features axios provides out of the box
• you must support very old browsers without a fetch polyfill
• you want a heavily maintained library with frequent updates
