JavaScript is known for its single-threaded nature, yet it handles asynchronous operations efficiently. This is made possible by the event loop, which manages the execution of synchronous code, asynchronous callbacks, and promises. To fully understand how JavaScript handles asynchronous code, you need to know about macrotasks and microtasks. In this post, we’ll explore the event loop, how macrotasks and microtasks work, and how they affect the execution of your JavaScript code.
