Promises are objects that represent the eventual completion or failure of an asynchronous operation and its resulting value. They provide an easy way to deal with asynchronous code, allowing us to write cleaner and more readable code. Here we will discover what are promises in javascript and how to use them to incorporate asynchronous programming behaviour into our control flow, in this tutorial. A promise has 3 states − Pending − ... Read More
