Description

Makes the external LeetCode API fetch in fetchUserInfo graceful and optional. Previously, non-200 status codes (like 500 or 429) caused unhandled errors that crashed the entire data-fetching flow, preventing users from viewing cached history and badges.

Linked Issue

Fixes #352

Changes Made

  • Added a local .catch() error handler to livePromise to gracefully catch and log external API failures.
  • Prevented errors from propagating to ensure the function safely falls back to repository data instead of crashing.

  • Bug fix
  • New feature
  • UI/Visual update
  • Documentation update

Testing
