Snippet for Avoiding the async/await hell medium article
async function orderItems() {
const items = await getCartItems() // async call
const noOfItems = items.length
const promises = []
for(var i = 0; i < noOfItems; i++) {
const orderPromise = sendRequest(items[i]) // async call
promises.push(orderPromise) // sync call
}
await Promise.all(promises) // async call
}
// Although I prefer it this way
async function orderItems() {
const items = await getCartItems() // async call
const promises = items.map((item) => sendRequest(item))
await Promise.all(promises) // async call
}
