async vs defer
Check this image for better understanding
//https://i.stack.imgur.com/wfL82.png
Async scripts are executed as soon as the script is loaded, so it doesn't guarantee the order of execution (a script you included at the end may execute before the first script file )
Defer scripts guarantees the order of execution in which they appear in the page.javascript async script
<script async src="script.js"></script>js async await
/* Notes:
1. written like synchronous code
2. compatible with try/catch blocks
3. avoids chaining .then statements
4. async functions always return a promise
5. function pauses on each await expression
6. A non promise value is converted to
Promise.resolve(value) and then resolved

// Syntax
// Function Declaration
async function myFunction(){
await ... // some code goes here
}
// Arrow Declaration
const myFunction2 = async () => {
await ... // some code goes here
}
// OBJECT METHODS
const obj = {
async getName() {
return fetch('https://www.example.com');
}
}
// IN A CLASS
class Obj {
// getters and setter CANNOT be async
async getResource {
return fetch('https://www.example.com');
}
}javscript async await explained
// Promise approach
function getJSON(){
// To make the function blocking we manually create a Promise.
return new Promise( function(resolve) {
axios.get('https://tutorialzine.com/misc/files/example.json')
.then( function(json) {
// The data from the request is available in a .then block
// We return the result using resolve.
resolve(json);
});
});
}
// Async/Await approach
// The async keyword will automatically create a new Promise and return it.
async function getJSONAsync(){
// The await keyword saves us from having to write a .then() block.
let json = await axios.get('https://tutorialzine.com/misc/files/example.json');
// The result of the GET request is available in the json variable.
// We return it just like in a regular synchronous function.
return json;
