What are JavaScript async functions?

Can you explain what async functions are in JavaScript?

Sure! Async functions in JavaScript allow you to write asynchronous code that looks synchronous, making it easier to read and maintain.

How do I define an async function?

You define an async function using the async keyword before the function declaration. For example: async function myFunction() { ... }.

What is the purpose of the await keyword?

The await keyword is used inside async functions to pause execution until a Promise is resolved, allowing for cleaner asynchronous code.

Can you give me an example of using async and await?

Certainly! Here's a simple example:

async function fetchData() {
    let response = await fetch('https://api.example.com/data');
    let data = await response.json();
    console.log(data);
}
