I am trying to run an API call with a useEffect() function in Vite, but it doesn’t seem to run (debugged with console.log()).

I tried running:

useEffect(() => {
  const fetchPosts = async () => {
    setLoading(true);
    const res = await axios.get('https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts');
    setPosts(res.data);
    setLoading(false);
  }

  fetchPosts();
}, []);

expecting setPosts() to return the information from the API, but it returns empty. Putting a console.log() before declaring fetchPosts does nothing, and shows that useEffect() doesn’t run.
