4. Before you ship

Set a timeout and handle non-200 responses: free APIs can rate-limit or go down.
Cache responses where you can, instead of calling the API on every page view.
Browser calls depend on CORS. If a request is blocked, move it to a server or serverless function.
Read the official documentation ↗ for rate limits and terms of use.
