Solution retrospective

when you inmediately click on the button after the advice shows up on the screen, it flashes and shows the same advice, it takes like a 2 or 3 seconds delay to show a new one, if you click on the button during these time, it will not change. I couldn't find out how to help that, i want the request to be faster and smoother. i will be checking some other solutions to see if i can do it.

    Just in case you need it in the future...

    You can control HTTP cache with the Cache-Control header:

    • Using the Fetch API:
    fetch(url, { method: "GET", cache: "no-cache" });

    You should give this article a read, it will give you a better understanding of how HTTP caching works: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Caching

    This problem is not your fault. Rather data is being stored (cached for a period of 2 to 3 seconds). This problem is inherent from the API and is even specified in the documentation. To resolve this, you might have to use another API or you can set the cached state to no-cache explicitly so no data is cached at all.
