Converting cURL Commands to Axios: A Step-by-Step Guide

When working with APIs, developers often encounter various ways to make requests. One common method is using cURL, a command-line tool for sending and receiving data using URL syntax. However, if you're working in a JavaScript environment, especially with frameworks like React, you'll typically want to use Axios, a promise-based HTTP client. This guide will guide you through the process of converting a cURL command into an Axios request, utilizing a specific example for clarity.
