About Unirest

Unirest is a set of lightweight HTTP libraries available in multiple languages, built and maintained by Kong, who also maintains the open-source API Gateway Kong. To utilize Unirest for node.js install the npm module. You're probably wondering how using Unirest makes creating requests easier. Besides automatically supporting gzip, and parsing responses, you can start with basic examples. A request can be initiated by invoking the appropriate method on the Unirest object, then calling .end() to send the request. Alternatively, you can send the request directly by providing a callback along with the URL. Provides simple and easy-to-use methods for manipulating the request prior to being sent. This object is created when a Unirest method is invoked. This object contains methods that are chainable like other libraries such as jQuery and popular request module Superagent (which this library is modeled after slightly).

Semantic UI React
Semantic UI React
Semantic UI React is the official React integration for Semantic UI. jQuery-free, declarative API, augmentation, shorthand props, sub-components, auto controlled state. jQuery is a DOM manipulation library. It reads from and writes to the DOM. React uses a virtual DOM (a JavaScript representation of the real DOM). React only writes patch updates to the DOM, but never reads from it. It is not feasible to keep real DOM manipulations in sync with React's virtual DOM. Because of this, all jQuery functionality has been re-implemented in React. Control the rendered HTML tag, or render one component as another component. Extra props are passed to the component you are rendering as. Augmentation is powerful. You can compose component features and props without adding extra nested components. Shorthand props generate markup for you, making many use cases a breeze. All object props are spread on the child components.
