What are some real-world examples of using async/await in Express?

Can you give me some real-world examples of using async/await in Express?

Sure! One common example is handling database operations. Instead of using callbacks, you can use async/await to make your code cleaner.

Can you show me a code snippet for that?

Absolutely! Here's a simple example:

app.get('/users', async (req, res) => {
    try {
        const users = await User.find();
        res.json(users);
    } catch (error) {
        res.status(500).send(error);
    }
});

What about error handling with async/await?

Great question! You can use try/catch blocks to handle errors effectively, as shown in the snippet above.

Are there any performance considerations I should be aware of?

Yes, while async/await simplifies code, it can introduce overhead. It's important to balance readability and performance.
