Solution retrospective

The Advice Slip API does not give random advice in firefox but works in chrome. It's either firefox bug of API bug not sure. I have also tried a little work around for this problem, checkout my script.js file of this project in Github Repo, The commented out lines . Any suggestions are very welcome. Thanks!

    Hi Mohit kalme!

    My congrats for finishing the challange!

    Your problem makes me many troubles too, but I resolved it. The browser by default looks for a matching request in its HTTP cache. If there is a match and it is fresh, it will be returned from the cache- so it takes the previous advice. You can read more in this article on mdn https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Request/cache You can resolve it by adding {cache: no-cache} just after the URL address like below: const res = await fetch(API_ENDPOINT, {cache: no-cache});

    I hope that it helps you!
