Could you please provide a brief question related to adding throttling to frontend API call?

We can always use throttle-debounce.

I'm open to contribute to this amazing project!

@ajaythapliyal / @dartpain
I noticed that this issue is still open. Can I work on it? Are there any specific requirements regarding throttling, such as the time interval between requests? Should I use a particular library, or would you prefer that I develop an in-house throttler?

[surajTade]

@dartpain
Few questions before I start coding:

1. Should I implement the throttling at the service layer (/frontend/src/api/client.ts) or at specific locations where the service is being used?
2. Do we want a custom throttling logic, or we can use an external dependency?

hi @surajTade , thanks for your interest in working on this issue.
Yes please implement the throttling at the service layer and you're welcome to use an external dependency for simplicity and reliability as long as they are light.

hii @siiddhantt
can you be more specific about what all needs to be implemented here? I understand that the backend should not get overwhelmed with the number of requests, but "Add throttling seems to be very superficial.

I tried implementing this throttling logic with limit, although I'm not sure if this is what was expected as per the request.
please review and let me know if something needs to be changed: #1265
