Next Generation Asynchronous Patterns in JavaScript
summary
Covers concrete migration from callbacks to ES6 Promises, shows how ES6 Promises separate success/error and let you chain calls; demonstrates generator functions yielding values and being driven by .next to make async flows look sequential; introduces generators+co to unwrap promise-returning HTTP calls so try/catch works across async boundaries; maps that pattern to async/await (via TypeScript/Babel transpile) and notes runtime limits (older IE needs transpilation). Includes code-level examples and error-handling behavior, not just theory.
