The `body` mixins are the most common way to format the request/response body. Mixins include:

- [`.formData()`](https://fetch.spec.whatwg.org/#dom-body-formdata)
- [`.arrayBuffer()`](https://fetch.spec.whatwg.org/#dom-body-arraybuffer)
- [`.blob()`](https://fetch.spec.whatwg.org/#dom-body-blob)

# Body Mixins

`Response` and `Request` body inherit body mixin methods. These methods include:

- [`.arrayBuffer()`](https://fetch.spec.whatwg.org/#dom-body-arraybuffer)
- [`.blob()`](https://fetch.spec.whatwg.org/#dom-body-blob)
- [`.formData()`](https://fetch.spec.whatwg.org/#dom-body-formdata)
- [`.json()`](https://fetch.spec.whatwg.org/#dom-body-json)
- [`.text()`](https://fetch.spec.whatwg.org/#dom-body-text)

There is an ongoing discussion regarding `.formData()` and its usefulness and performance in server environments. It is recommended to use a dedicated library for parsing `multipart/form-data` bodies, such as [Busboy](https://www.npmjs.com/package/busboy) or [@fastify/busboy](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@fastify/busboy).

These libraries can be interfaced with fetch with the following example code:

```mjs
import { Busboy } from '@fastify/busboy'
import { Readable } from 'node:stream'

const response = await fetch('...')
const busboy = new Busboy({
headers: {
'content-type': response.headers.get('content-type')
}
})

Readable.fromWeb(response.body).pipe(busboy)
```
