In this article, we will explore how to consume an API using the new use API in React 19, a feature that simplifies the management of asynchronous data in applications. The scenario involves an application that needs to consume an API, such as fetching user names. Prior to React 19, you would have used useEffect, but now you can utilize the use API, which makes handling promises much simpler. We will break down the code into three parts: defining the fetchUsers function and userPromise, creating the Users component, and implementing Suspense. It's important to note that use does not allow promises created during the rendering phase, so they must be created outside of this phase, like userPromise. React 19 introduces powerful tools to simplify application development, with the use API being one of them, making asynchronous data management more intuitive and efficient.
