JavaScript async/await: Why Your console.logs Print in the "Wrong" Order
This course is for a developer who already writes JavaScript — you use .then(), you write async/await, you call setTimeout — but the order things run in still feels like magic. You log A before B in the source and B prints first; a .then() you wrote last somehow runs before a setTimeout(fn, 0) you wrote earlier; you can't say what await actually does to the line under it. The fix is not more syntax. It is one mental model: a single call stack, a microtask queue, and a task queue, with an event loop deciding who runs next. Once you can see those three places, the ordering stops being magic and becomes something you can predict on paper.
