Google's official JavaScript client library (gapi) for accessing Google APIs from browser applications. It provides authentication, batching, and discovery-based API access.
Use cases
- call Google APIs from a browser app
- authenticate users with Google in JavaScript
- load Google API client with discovery documents
- batch multiple Google API requests
- access Google Drive or Calendar from web app
When to choose
- building a browser-based app that consumes Google APIs
- you need OAuth flows and API batching handled for you
When to avoid
- building a Node.js server-side app (use googleapis instead)
- you need a modern promise-first SDK with TypeScript types
