What is the difference between AJAX API and Axios of NodeJs
Do libraries like Axios and Request for NodeJS fulfill exactly what an AJAX request does?
I feel like it does the exact same thing except from the server side? I've never used AJAX and when I built a data scraping program using API calls a co-worker asked me about it and I told him I had no clue what it was.
So after watching a quick video I feel like those libraries do the exact same thing as AJAX? Just asking here for clarification.

Axios and Request do HTTP(S) requests.
AJAX is "a set of web technologies to With Ajax, web applications can send and retrieve data from a server asynchronously [via HTTP(S)]". ~ Wikipedia
So yes, both things are somehow related.
Thank you sir Jonas
