JavaScript Asynchronous Programming

Explore the async/await pattern to write cleaner asynchronous JavaScript code. Understand how to handle promises, use async functions properly, and manage API calls with fetch to avoid callback complexities and improve readability in your applications.

By the end of this lesson, we’ll be able to apply the async/await pattern to perform asynchronous operations.

Asynchronous programming with async/await

In the not-so-distant past, developers typically relied on promise chains to handle asynchronous logic, which would quickly lead to messy and unreadable code.

The async/await statements greatly simplify the syntax for making asynchronous calls with JavaScript. They make asynchronous code look like synchronous code. ...
