This exercise here is currently not working: Learn React / Side Effects / Fetching data in React / Exercise #1
It’s returning this when you run the code before making changes:
I’ve done some digging and it turns out that swapi.dev is returning errors due to an expired SSL cert.
This highlights a problem with using public APIs in your courses that don’t have any SLAs…
Luckily I found that there is a mirror for swapi.dev : swapi.py4e.com
If you use that domain in the URL instead, the code works correctly.
BTW I’m a bit annoyed nobody from Scrimba is addressing the following thread: Problem with ChefClaude react-markdown
I’ve hit a few snags like this with Scrimba while doing this course and it doesn’t seem right to me that people are paying course fees to Scrimba, and these problems haven’t been acknowledged or fixed.
