What changed

README examples now show:

• timeout: 5000 in the first async example
• timeout in the promise example
• a note explaining why timeouts matter in production

Why

A common real-world mistake is leaving HTTP requests without timeouts, causing them to hang indefinitely. Adding timeout examples helps users adopt safer defaults.

Summary by cubic

Adds timeout guidance to the README and getting-started docs to encourage safer axios defaults and prevent hanging requests. Examples now set timeout: 5000 and link to matching error handling.

Description

• README.md: add timeout: 5000 to the Promise-based axios example and a short note under async examples linking to “Handling Timeouts”.
• /docs/pages/getting-started/first-steps.md: add a “Set a timeout in production” tip with an example and links to request config timeout and error handling (ECONNABORTED / ETIMEDOUT).
• Reasoning: requests without timeouts can hang; examples now promote safer defaults.
• Testing: docs-only; no tests needed.

Semantic version impact

• None (documentation-only).
