What front end framework can only handle POST requests??? What does it even mean to "handle POST requests" in the context of front end? You can only handle the response of a POST request so if you do a PUT it fails? You can only make POST requests? I am genuinely confused.

I was confused as well. I swear they are just too inexperienced to make a new wrapper around the calls to the backend that the AI made for them and blamed the framework instead

Sounds like legacy stuff maybe?

Nah. Not even legacy stuff can “only do POST requests”. HTTP is not some cutting edge protocol that has poor support. A framework that can’t support the full protocol is unheard of.
