Maybe if the only thing you do is Ajax. Writing a server, a web crawler, a P2P protocol, heterogeneous OpenCL computations, etc, and you're going to need something a little more heavy-duty.



I'm writing a p2p protocol and you are wrong. Async/await is compatible with promises and the tooling around them, but for 90% of cases it is much more understandable.


What exactly would you need that you can't get with async/await or async/await+Promises?
