- Experiment with different types of requests, such as GET and POST requests, and learn how to handle errors and exceptions.
- You can use [JSON Placeholder API](https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/) to practice making different requests
- You should practice by building more projects
- You can use [Free Public APIs](https://github.com/public-apis/public-apis) for building many interesting applications
