is there a standard established way to do the following:

curl -i "<http://api.waqi.info/feed/shanghai/?token=demo>"

returns

{
 status: "ok",
 data: {
 aqi: 70,
 time: {
 s: "2016-12-11 12:00:00"
 },
 city: {
 name: "Shanghai",
 url: "<http://aqicn.org/city/shanghai/>",
 geo: [
 "31.2047372",
 "121.4489017"
 ]
 },
 iaqi: {
 pm25: "..."
 }
 }
}

i want to make a simple page that calls the API and formats the result. but i want to do it in the browser so that i can host a serverless webpage.

Ive look at Angular and react but it seems an awful lot of setup and baggage to do something simple like this.

i could write the jscript and html from scratch but also feels like there should be some libraries to support this.
