@@sazaraki not just interesting, but very fundamental. many tutorials talk about the the syntax difference between callback, promise, and async/await, but neglect the more important question about which part of your code is intended to be async (going to background in parallel) and which part is intended to block
I'm so glad to hear that asynch js is not only for me difficult to learn, because it's just not sinking in, yet. I'm grateful to learn from your videos, you can explain complex things simple.
What I love about your video is that you don't just explain the code based on the syntax, but you give conrete examples in which it can actually be used. This also results in a very natural example for chaining promises (getting json from a response), which makes this super easy to grasp. Thank you very much for making this! Maybe you could take a look at using async await for concurrent callbacks as well?
If you're using the fetch api I recommand checking the value of "response.ok" because code 404 (or whatever code error the pokemon api sends back) is not an error for the fetch api because the server successfully sent back a response.
The best video I have ever seen. You know what , I have found students need to know all the basics and fundamentals in programming, then they will be prepared for digesting more complex concept. the problem is the jump right into hell and it caused them to get burn out and give up. anyway, your video was fabulous.
This seems like a good syntax and concept introduction, what it lacks is actual explanation on how exactly these calls are executed, in what queue, order over time etc.
Alt+Up/Down arrows. If you press shift+alt+up/down arrow it will duplicate the line, and if you press ctrl+alt+up/down arrow it will extend the cursor onto multiple lines allowing you to write something several times at once
This is the best explanation about the topic. Every other video only post setTimeout example. So i always wondered "what about other scenarios?". Now i understand this concept. Thank you very much.
@@JamesQQuick For me it's OOP. I use instructive or functional programming and shy away from class based oop. Async JS is ok if you watch a few good explanations of the event loop
Recently came across your channel via Twitter, Love ur videos.,It took me 2 yrs to understand callbacks (give and back) but it was worth it, I can now know it is working and how to create HOF.
Hi, I am new to JS but out of all the syntaxes I have learned from traditional to es6 and above, await async seems like easiest one to manage. In terms of updating the code and maintenance, async await is the way to go. It is more concise which makes it less prone to human error … You are a great teacher, the only thing I wasn’t familiar with in your video was the fs read only stuff… I get the gist of it, but I would like to learn more details. If you already made a vid on it I will find it your library. I am one of your newest subscribers. Thanks for the content❤
I also like using async and await, when I first started it was promises then I started working with this developer who told me to always use async and await since then have been hooked if am writing any JS async and await will surely appear
You explained this so well, even has a noob I was able to follow along and understand. If you could just take all of your knowledge and put it inside of my brain via osmosis, that would be great.
Thank you for this. Helped me to properly understand promises and asynchronous functions …I’ve been able to refactor a bunch methods in my project today too 😂
I just finished a homework that imports inquire object then latches a prompt and a then(). I wanted to learn about async await and am going to use this video to try and rewrite the code (am learning node so may try to write parts of the code into modules as well). Thank you!
`async` `await` is by far the most intuitive. i have struggled with async JS in the past. prolly the hardest part of JS for me too. i wish you wouldve went more in depth on async/await
When it comes to performance and optimization, try-catch blocks require more resources than simple "if x==null" blocks. It also makes the code more readable if you check for null first, and in this case you exit directly from the method.
Thanks, I understand Asynchronous JavaScript better after watching your vid for a 2nd time (you go very fast so I didn't get much on the firs watch) 11:43 "it should safely handle this response". What is the point of the error handling in all the examples? Aren't the errors always logged in the console anyway? 12:20 why would you await res.json? what happens if you take the await keyword out in line 78?
Nice video James, a clarification - await keyword do the functionality of .then we use in resolve and reject way of handling a promise but rather it gives us access to the incoming response.

Just keep repeating using them, after a while you'll find them so easy to grasp.

Hey! I watched a lot of videos, read a lot of articles, but only YOU explained these topics in a clear way! thank you!
Yesssss! Glad to hear it :)
For the first time, I came across a helpful and well-organized tutorial on Asynchronous. Thank you, James!
My teacher taught us Asynchronous JavaScript at the end of a class in 15 minutes and I got 0% of it. Thank you for this video
Best tutorial on async I have come across. I am 'new' to JS and will jump straight into async/await.
Thaaaaaaaaank you! This is such a beautifully simple explanation of the whole thing, starting from callbacks to async! Please keep on doing great job.
I have to subscribe your content is invaluable. This is like the 5th video I’ve watched from you this week
Senior dev here and browsing around. Good clean clear vids.
If you're using the fetch api I recommand checking the value of "response.ok" because code 404 (or whatever code error the pokemon api sends back) is not an error for the fetch api because the server successfully sent back a response.
hello sonia. do you have the link to the fetch api?
good suggestion, thank you. I just read about it, it makes sense
If you have this issue and it's a node or react project, try axios

After many many many manyyyyyy attempts promises finally became clear.. thanks the video!..:-)..
examples were practical, easy to understand tutorial

Thank you so much for this explanation - I had a lightbulb moment while watching this video and I finally get it - Thank you!
Fantastic video. Well prepared. Succinct. Everything I could have asked for.
What a vídeo! Well done mate.
Great summary. Thanks a lot!! The last version is more readable for me too. I will adopt that.
the best explanation of asynchronous abstractions ever. Thank you!
This was a very clear explanation, I finally understand it now after 5 years. Thank you!

Watched this as a refresher and it went better than I expected! Thank you for this
Good video, like the pace as someone who doesnt use JavaScript but knows programming. Its basically just like threads.
It was difficult to understand but with this video I get it! thanks
