Conclusion

Summary

Recap the topics covered in this chapter.

We'll cover the following

Summary
- What next?

In this chapter, we focused on the asynchronous nature of the JavaScript runtime, and what techniques we can use to work with this feature.

We can distill the key takeaways from this chapter into the following:

We started with callbacks, which is a standard way of handling asynchronous calls within JavaScript.
We also explored the concept of callback hell, which is when using callbacks can become a bit of a nightmare.
