In computer programming, the async/await pattern is a syntactic feature of many programming languages that allows an asynchronous, non-blocking function to be structured in a way similar to an ordinary synchronous function.
Ajax (also AJAX / ˈ eɪ dʒ æ k s /; short for "asynchronous JavaScript and XML" [1] [2]) is a set of web development techniques that uses various web technologies on the client-side to create asynchronous web applications.
Code Ninjas is a for-profit educational organization specializing in teaching coding to kids, and is the largest kids coding franchise in the world with over 400 locations open and operating in three countries. [1] It is headquartered in Pearland, Texas. [2] It was founded by David Graham in 2016, inspired by watching his son learn Tae Kwon Do. [3]
Asynchrony, in computer programming, refers to the occurrence of events independent of the main program flow and ways to deal with such events. These may be "outside" events such as the arrival of signals, or actions instigated by a program that take place concurrently with program execution, without the program hanging to wait for results. [1]
In multithreaded computer programming, asynchronous method invocation (AMI), also known as asynchronous method calls or the asynchronous pattern is a design pattern in which the call site is not blocked while waiting for the called code to finish. Instead, the calling thread is notified when the reply arrives.
In other cases a future and a promise are created together and associated with each other: the future is the value, the promise is the function that sets the value – essentially the return value (future) of an asynchronous function (promise). Setting the value of a future is also called resolving, fulfilling, or binding it.
Asynchronous module definition (AMD) is a specification for the programming language JavaScript. It defines an application programming interface (API) that defines code modules and their dependencies, and loads them asynchronously if desired. Implementations of AMD provide the following benefits:
To accommodate the single-threaded event loop, Node.js uses the libuv library—which, in turn, uses a fixed-sized thread pool that handles some of the non-blocking asynchronous I/O operations. [7] A thread pool handles the execution of parallel tasks in Node.js.
