JavaScript Promises 101

Read Original

This article provides a comprehensive introduction to JavaScript Promises. It explains how Promises represent pending asynchronous operations, like network requests, and offer a cleaner alternative to nested callbacks. The guide covers creating Promises with the constructor, using .then() and .catch() methods for handling fulfillment and rejection, and includes a practical example of promise-ifying an XMLHttpRequest.
