Node 10 has fs, at least: require("fs").promises.readdir(".").then(console.log)

  Why not just: require("fs").readdir(".").then(console.log)

    That's the legacy callback version. In practice you'd probably do: const fs = require("fs").promises; // ... fs.readdir(".").then(console.log);

      Ah, thats pretty nice. The previous example was pretty janky but I didn't foresee it being used like this. Eyes opened.

    It can potentially break things. There are legacy code that assume that calling `readdir` will yield undefined, and will have just passed that result to a function, that alters its behaviour based on whether a parameter is undefined.

      Interesting. Seems like a great opportunity for a major version bump.
