Async Await 🧑🏻‍💻 Episode 13 of 20 Things JavaScript Developers Should Know but Probably Don't

[jl_]

this video saved me in an interview. I was asked to explain async/await code and remembered what this video taught me

[copytopgrade]

Underated chanel 😩 hope this thumb up break YouTube algorithm 😂

[abdullah-ayy]

This is by far the best Javascript tutorial in my opinion. I did watch JS tutorials on over 100 different channels and couldn't find any explanation that can compete with your explanation so thank you for the great content. You deserve millions of subscribers.

[bmehder]

Glad to see more videos in this series. It's been a while. I blame Craig.

[VaradNarvekar]

I cant be more thankful to you for providing such quality content !! I have never come across any person before who can explain things in sucha smooth wayyyy !! 2023 gonna be a wonderful year !! <3 Its fun, informative and eye pleasing all at once !!

[serapheogen]

I thought Brad Traversy was my favorite instructor on YouTube, and I do love his work but I can't wait for your JS course. You don't miss a single step/detail out and that's invaluable. No need to jump around video to video to find a crucial missing piece of information that was missed from a video which got me 80% the way there but not 100%.

[JoshIbbotson]

Honestly i've been learning for just over a year now and I come to your videos when i'm confused with a concept and need to sit down and understand it. I genuinely appreciate your videos and I hope you keep going long into my future career.

[BigSmoke-rw]

I am so afraid of this topic, but after you taught it, I finally got how it works. Thanks good sir!

By the way, that coffee is the cherry on top of this video ❤

[UnifiedFriends]

Long awaited, finally allSettled && fulfilled.

[daxcor]

One of the best videos I have ever watched on the subject. Dude, you are a very good educator.

[ranchokastudent]

Thanks a lot! this video was very helpful. I had 0 knowledge of js and had to do a ppt on async js and this video series helped me a lot!

[Leesdjo]

One thing special about this 20 video series is that you helped most of us in advanced for what we will soon encounter as we move on to take the software developer role in the future. Thank you. Your effort means a lot to me.

[RadoslavPhanVan]

Your way of explaining is something else (in a good way). I couldn't wrap my head around this topic but after watching this video it's piece of cake. Thank you

[MohamedAhmed-ttnz]

20 episodes might not be enough, great work again !!

[HadjerKhelil-ty]

the way you explain things in such an easy and well- structured way is honestly admirable, i was a bit lost and you helped clarify all the ambiguities i had <3 i cannot thank you enough.

[jpsingh]

Really liked the way you make others understand the concepts, repetition is the key.

[businessnews]

I realized from the start that you're more focused on adding value than just gaining subscribers. That's impressive! ❤

[fengz-xz]

I would suggest that you release "Javascript Mastery" course NOW! As a student, I don't need to go over your entire "Javascript Mastery" course. I just need to watch some of the videos on topics that I am struggling with, so just show us what you have, and charge us, students, on a subscription basis.

Thank you so much for helping me understand these points of asynchronous js which confused me for days. I'll definitely review all these episodes to enhance my understanding. I really love your teaching style btw!
