As programmers we all face it one day or another: asynchronous programming (A.K.A. non-blocking programming) ain’t easy. Fortunately JavaScript is one of the few programming languages where it’s actually nicely implemented (since a few years at least). That’s why I propose you today to see some more advanced techniques than simply sending an HTTP request and waiting for the response.

This article is for JavaScript programmers that have some understanding of promises and the async/await syntax and would like to know more, if you have trouble understanding it I can recommend you Mozilla’s course. It contains examples using the modern-async open source library. Also you might want to know I’m the creator of that library so it could have impact on my point of view.
