The Request object represents a resource request, and it’s usually created using the new Request() API.

Example:

const req = new Request('/api/todos')

The Request object offers several read-only properties to inspect the resource request details, including

• method: the request’s method (GET, POST, etc.)
• url: the URL of the request.
• headers: the associated Headers object of the request
• referrer: the referrer of the request
• cache: the cache mode of the request (e.g., default, reload, no-cache).

And exposes several methods including json(), text() and formData() to process the body of the request.

The full API can be found at https://developer.mozilla.org/docs/Web/API/Request
