Ditching Promises and Socially Acceptable Callback Hell

Explore the evolution of asynchronous JavaScript programming in this 34-minute conference talk from NDC Conferences. Delve into the limitations of promises as a solution to nested callback hell and discover more effective approaches to writing asynchronous code. Learn about key features in ES6 and ES7 that enable the creation of synchronous-like async code. Examine the history of callbacks and promise libraries, understand the benefits of native promises, and master techniques for building your own synchronous async code using ES6 Generators. Finally, investigate the upcoming Async/Await features in ES7 and gain insights on how to write cleaner, more maintainable asynchronous JavaScript code that frees you from the complexities of callback hell.
