Why are the API calls made in useEffet()?

#react #javascript #webdev #programming

In general, I see that API call operations are done in the useEffect hook in projects made with react. As a result of my research, I saw that API call operations are not recommended to be done in useEffect(). Why do developers make API calls in useEffect?

Where do you guys make the API calls?
