In-depth training on asynchronous JavaScript., Fundamental concepts about asynchronous JavaScript., How asynchronous JavaScript is achieved using the event loop., The ubiquitous callback pattern., Problems we encounter with callbacks., The ins, outs and whys of JavaScript promises., The fetch command., The async await pattern. The new way of handling asynchronous code., Iterators and Generators and when to use them.
Anyone who wants to master Asynchronous javascript.
A basic level of JavaScript. The more experience you have the more easily you will grasp the concepts taught in this course., A desire to master callbacks, promises, async await and generators.
Effectively working with asynchronous code in JavaScript is an essential skill for anyone working with JavaScript. Asynchronous patterns are used extensively. This course will take you from a beginner or intermediate level to mastering asynchronous JavaScript. You will feel comfortable dealing with any asynchronous code.
This course start with the basics of asynchronous code in JavaScript. We take a look at the event loop and the role it plays in asynchronous JavaScript. We dig into the original asynchronous pattern, the callback. We dive into Promises, and tackle this subject in depth. We then add the async await pattern to the discussion. In the last section we cover generators and how and when they can be used in your code. Code example are used throughout the course and there are plenty of chances for you to try things on your own.
By taking this course you will be able to:
Explain the role of the Event Loop in asynchronous coding.
Use callbacks throughout your code.
Incorporate and work with promises no matter the source.
Use the async await pattern to make your asynchronous code easier to reason about.
Incorporate generators when needed.
This is one of the best courses produced on asynchronous JavaScript. It contains unmatched coverage. If you are looking to learn this very important topic, this course is for you.

I have had 25+ years experience in training and product development and 20+ years working with JavaScript. I started learning JavaScript when it was a new language used for minor affects on a web site. The growth and ubiquitous nature of JavaScript both excites and inspires me.
I currently work as the President and Lead Trainer at All Things JavaScript, a resource for anyone and everyone that hopes to increase their JavaScript skills and move from novice to expert.
I'm doing what I love most: Teaching about technical subjects. It is so important to understand the why, not just the what and how, when it comes to technical subjects. My goal is to help thousands of JavaScript developers to get started and become experts in the field making a great living coding.
I was the co-owner and President of Rapid Intake, an eLearning firm. The company was an ideal place for me to apply my training and development skills. While there I managed all development and professional service related activities. I was heavily involved in the initial development of Rapid Intake's main product, an eLearning authoring tool, which eventually lead to Rapid Intake's acquisition in 2011 by Callidus Software.
In addition to JavaScript technologies, I have dabbled in other web technologies such as ActionScript, ASP, PHP, HTML, and CSS.
