I think the javascript community is moving away (and it should :-)) from using Promises and into using async/await with try/catch and writing more sync looking code and avoid some of the pitfalls that promises and callbacks have.
I'm aware that async/await is based on Promises building block, but high level development chaining logic would not be using them at that high level. For golang I'm new to the language but so far what the community calls "idomatic" golang all learning resources (i.e. books, stdlib) use go routines and channels as a way to get back those results. Like Markus said. about python, I'm not deep into the language to provide guidance. -- Carlos On Mon, Sep 17, 2018 at 5:13 AM Michele Sciabarra <[email protected]> wrote: > Yes, understood.
