This post is meant to complement the talk I’m giving at CoderFaire on September 20, 2014. Hopefully you got to see it in person, but if not, I will maybe write out the full talk sometime soon. In the meantime, here are some links that I found helpful while researching the talk.
It’s surprisingly short and easy to digest. Worth reading!
Javascript Promises in Wicked Detail
Super great technical article that helps you write out a basic A+ compliant Promises library. Similar to reading the code, except you’re writing it and having it explained as you go.
Always love the HTML5 stuff!
Patterns for Asynchronous Programming with Promises
Helpful for trying to wrap your head around nesting and chaining.
Comparison of Javascript Libraries
Super quick comparison of all the libraries that have Promises and promise-like capabilities.
Callbacks, Promises, Signals, and Events
Great explanatory article for when to use different Javascript patterns.
Promises make it easy to do some dumb things, this post addresses a few anti-patterns and their solutions.
