What API would you like to consume / build?

[jeffflynn]

Great video!! Well done. I got tripped up in one part (likely because I'm new to NestJS and also may not have all of the appropriate VSCode extensions installed) - but at ~6:53 into the video where @Param is added, the subsequent Param library is automagically appended to `import` in the top line. Maybe others have gotten stuck scratching their head here like me ;-) ☺

Could you give the name of the extension you use that allows you to view the "http" request within VSCode?
Timestamp: 5:28

What would you need to change within either the getUser method or the request URL itself at 9:50 in order to get JUST the twitter followers and not youtube?

Quite new to NestJS, any idea how one would handle a 3rd party api with oauth2 access token? Some kind of middleware validating it?

[lohyixuan]

Hi, your video is amazing! I would like to ask could you or anyone here guide me on how to call multiple 3rd party API in a function in nestJS?
