How to make API calls to different environments?
Hello everyone, I am developing a small website using vanilla HTML, CSS, JS. In my JS files a make a couple of api calls using the Fetch API, but I need to change the base path when I am running locally (from time to time I need to call a local instance of the backend), test or prod environment.
I did not find a good way to handle this situation, is there anything I can do?
Also, I'll need to put the whole thing in an Nginx container and serve it from docker, is there any way I can deploy the same image in every environment? Or am I tied to having an image for every environment for the sake of changing the base URL?

How does this example from React documentation work?
Hello guys, I'm reading the new React documentation but I don't understand a little thing. In the step 5 in this page https://react.dev/learn/reacting-to-input-with-state the
handleSubmit function updates the status state 2 times (one at the top level and one inside try/catch). How is that possible? Shouldn't state be updated with just the last value?
I tried to add a new counter state and increment it by 1 every time that setStatus is called, and it actually gets incremented only by one per submit, as I expected... so why is setStatus different?4 replies
