Fetch Method?

Great Course. However I'm curious about the Fetch Method? How different is it from the methods taught in this section. is the fetch method discussed in any AJAX courses?

The Fetch method uses promises rather than callbacks. It also has a cleaner syntax than XMLHttpRequest however, the Fetch method is not supported by Internet Explorer. There are also some other features of XMLHttpRequest that Fetch does not support.
