Made this API call and display with API. I used the setInterval function so that new data is called and displayed. An issue I am having is that if a leave the page and return, the API call does not obey the set Interval. Please let me know how I can fix this issue. I also used the useEffect function to make the API call on the initial load. Please let me know how I can improve this component and make it more efficient.

    Hi there👋

    The idea is to generate a new piece of advice by clicking the dice icon so you don't need to use a timer. So you just attach a click listener on the dice icon like so:

    <div className='quote-dice' onClick={() => getAdvice()}>...</div>

    You can even go further by handling loading and error states. 👍
