+# Fetch API Shoe Data
+
+## AT A GLANCE
+
+- Goal: demonstrate scraping websites that block standard HTTP requests using Browserbase's Fetch API.
+- No browser session needed — the Fetch API is a lightweight HTTP request routed through Browserbase's infrastructure.
+- Faster and cheaper than spinning up a full browser session for server-rendered pages.
+- Shows a side-by-side comparison: standard HTTP request (403 blocked, even with Chrome headers) vs Browserbase Fetch API (200 OK with full content).
+  Docs → https://docs.browserbase.com/features/fetch
+
+## GLOSSARY
+
+- Fetch API: Browserbase's lightweight HTTP fetch — bypasses basic bot detection without spinning up a full browser session
+  Docs → https://docs.browserbase.com/features/fetch
+- Server-rendered page: a page where the HTML returned by the server already contains the content (no JavaScript needed)
+- Bot detection: techniques websites use to block automated requests (IP reputation, TLS fingerprinting, header analysis)
+
+## QUICKSTART
+
+1. cd typescript/fetch-api-shoe-data
+2. pnpm install
+3. cp .env.example .env
+4. Add BROWSERBASE_API_KEY to .env (no project ID needed for Fetch API)
+5. pnpm start
+
+## EXPECTED OUTPUT
+
+- **Step 1**: Standard HTTP request with full Chrome headers — gets blocked with 403
+- **Step 2**: Browserbase Fetch API returns 200 with full HTML, parses and displays 10 sneaker listings with name, price, and URL
+
+## COMMON PITFALLS
+
+- "Cannot find module": ensure all dependencies are installed (`pnpm install`)
+- Missing credentials: verify .env contains BROWSERBASE_API_KEY
+- 502 error: Browserbase Fetch API has a 1MB response limit — use a browser session for larger pages
+- Empty results: the regex parser expects the current HTML structure — if the site changes their markup, update `parseSneakers()`
+- JS-rendered pages: the Fetch API does not execute JavaScript — for SPAs, use a browser session instead
+
+## USE CASES
+
+- Scraping server-rendered pages that block all standard HTTP requests
+- Lightweight price monitoring without the cost of a full browser session
+- Quick data collection where JavaScript execution isn't needed
+- Building data pipelines that need to bypass bot detection cheaply
+
+## NEXT STEPS
+
+- Swap the target URL for any server-rendered site that blocks standard requests
+- Add proxy geolocation to access region-specific content
+- Combine with a browser session fallback for pages that need JS (see smart-fetch-scraper template)
