After native promises, is there much reason to use 3rd party libraries? Promises are a pretty small set of tools, so I'm not sure what one would have to offer over another.
- STRML 11y agoFeatures, I suppose. Bluebird has many more helpers than the spec, and it may actually be faster than the first round of native Promises. We'll see how it evolves.
- realusername 11y agoThe stacktrace is much much better in Bluebird compared to native and there are lots of methods which are not available in the native one.
- inglor 11y agoBluebird is much faster and easier to debug than native promises. It is very feature rich and it runs _everywhere_. It also converts callback APIs to promises at one go. That said, on a client-side app there are cases where I'd use native promises. On the server - not a chance.
