Asynchronous Programming

Learning Objectives

[x] You understand the JavaScript Event Loop, and can demonstrate this by using setTimeout and setInterval to schedule simple tasks.
[x] You can explain why Asynchronous Programming is important for programs that have blocking and non-blocking tasks.
[x] You can explain the basics of the Client/Server model and HTTP requests and can fetch data from RESTful APIs.
[x] You can break down an asynchronous problem into smaller tasks and solve it using promises. This includes identify which tasks depend on each other and which are independent:
- dependent tasks: The return value from one task is required to start the next task, these must be completed in a specific order - .then
- independent tasks: These tasks do not use each other's return values, they can be completed at the same time - Promise.allsystem.
[x] You can fetch data from an API and render it into the DOM using /api-calls, /handlers and async/await syntax.
[x] You can write unit tests for functions that return promises using async/await syntax.

Separating the concerns: my task is not yet complete as I am still trying to understand how to separate concerns

I am rechecking the material again to understand how to separate concerns more effectively
My assignment is not yet complete but I hope to do that before Sunday
I worked on a small side project to create a stopwatch but without separating concerns

I have only worked on the Front-End of my project (although not entirely) and will try to finish the functionality before the next class

Time management - I have a busy exam schedule and I have had a challenge organizing myself well.
