Quick solution:

xxxxxxxxxx
 
const axios = require('axios');
​
axios({
  method: 'post',
  url: '/register',
  data: {
    username: 'user1',
    password: 'password1',
  },
}).then((response) => {
  console.log(response);
});

Practical example

Edit

1. Install axios

    username: 'user1',
    password: 'password1',
