Huh? Async code is so powerful. You can use promises instead of callbacks. And you can easily make a async call "synchronous" by adding the await keyword in front of it.
- _lacroix 7y agoIt's not that other languages don't have async code...they just do it using multiple threads or other patterns that are nicer to work with than JS.
