async and await in JavaScript

- async and await are used to handle asynchronous


operations in JavaScript. They provide a more readable and
synchronous-style approach to working with promises,
making asynchronous code easier to manage and understand.

async Keyword
- The async keyword is used to declare a function that
always returns a promise.
- Even if the function does not explicitly return a
promise, it automatically wraps the return value in a
promise.

await Keyword

- The await keyword can only be used inside an async


function.
- It pauses the execution of the function until the
promise resolves, and it returns the resolved value.
- The function execution continues only after the promise
has settled, making the code look synchronous.

Handling Errors with async/await


- try...catch blocks are used with async and await to
handle errors that might occur during asynchronous
operations.

# Example:
javascript
async function fetchWithErrorHandling() {
try {

} catch (error) {

}
}

fetchWithErrorHandling();
let getData = async ()=>{

try{

let data = await fetch("https://api.github.com/users")

// console.log(data)

let jsonData = await data.json()

console.log(jsonData) // it will give the original data.


}
catch(err)
{
console.log(err)
}

getData()
