@remix-run/web-fetch

Web API compatible fetch API for nodejs.

Comparison to Alternatives

node-fetch

The reason this fork exists is because node-fetch chooses to compromise Web API compatibility and by using nodejs native Readable stream. They way they put it is:

Make conscious trade-off when following [WHATWG fetch spec][whatwg-fetch] and stream spec implementation details, document known differences.

Use native Node streams for body, on both request and response.

We found these incompatibility to be really problematic when sharing code across nodejs and browser rutimes. This library uses @remix-run/web-stream instead.
