what is a promise

// Promise is a special type of object that helps you work with asynchronous operations.
// Many functions will return a promise to you in situations where the value cannot be retrieved immediately.

const userCount = getUserCount();
console.log(userCount); // Promise {<pending>}

// In this case, getUserCount is the function that returns a Promise. If we try to immediately display the value of the userCount variable, we get something like Promise {<pending>}.
// This will happen because there is no data yet and we need to wait for it.

promise definition in javascript

A promise is an object that may produce a single value sometime in the future: either a resolved value, or a reason that it's not resolved (e.g., a network error occurred)

promise javascript

const promiseA = new Promise( (resolutionFunc,rejectionFunc) => {
    resolutionFunc(777);
});
// At this point, "promiseA" is already settled.
promiseA.then( (val) => console.log("asynchronous logging has val:",val) );
console.log("immediate logging");

// produces output in this order:
// immediate logging
// asynchronous logging has val: 777
