Node.js FAQ: Top Questions

8. What are Promises in Node.js?

Promises are objects representing the eventual completion (or failure) of an asynchronous operation, providing a cleaner alternative to callbacks for handling async code.

  • States: Pending, fulfilled (resolved), or rejected.
  • Methods: then (handle resolved), catch (handle errors), finally .
  • Chaining: Supports sequential async operations.
  • Use Case: Simplifying async workflows, avoiding callback hell.
