To use this utility function in your project, you can simply copy the function into your codebase. Ensure you have a modern JavaScript or TypeScript environment that supports async/await and the Fetch API.
import { checkHealth } from './path/to/your/utility';
const url = 'https://example.com';
checkHealth(url)
.then(result => console.log(result))
.catch(error => console.error(error));The function includes basic error handling to manage invalid URLs and issues during the fetch operation. It uses console.error for logging errors, which can be useful for debugging purposes.
