Async JavaScript
- Callbacks, Promises, Async/Await
- (Quiz) Callbacks, Promises, Async/Await
In this section you'll take a step back in time to learn how the way we manage asynchronous JavaScript code has changed from Callbacks, to Promises, to Async/Await. Along the way you'll learn how to use all three as well as their tradeoffs.

The Love
This is the part where we're supposed to tell you how great the course is. Even better if we get other "famous" developers to give their "reviews". Instead, we'll let those who have actually taken the course do that.

Awesome!
- CVCameron van Roon★★★★★3 months ago
A great course most applicable to anyone with existing coding experience. It could use some more practical components to help apply more practically the concepts covered but otherwise definitely fairly comprehensive and engaging.
- GGonzalo★★★★★3 months ago
Very good course, especially the learning style and the way stuff is explained.
- Steve Hanlon★★★★★4 months ago
Your explanations are stellar and worth 5 stars! The course is missing short assignments to do or short projects. Also the quizzes are helpful but really should be minimum 10 questions with maybe 5 multiple choice and 5 coding input where we have to finish the code. Thank you for such clear explanations. The course was very helpful.

Took me by surprise. Filled the gaps in my knowledge I wasn't even aware of. Loved it! Advance JavaScript now.

Tyler is good instructor in delivering concepts with clean examples. So far I have been enjoying my learning for refreshing my concepts on JavaScript.
- EHEthan Horne★★★★★6 months ago
Tyler takes the time to explain in detail how JavaScript works. I thought I had a good understanding before this course, but didn't understand classes, modules, or the history of JavaScript. Tyler is a great teacher.
