Adds a timeout to a JavaScript promise, rejects if not resolved within timeout period (uses requestAnimationFrame for better accuracy)

Promises can only be settled once.

const bar = await new Promise(resolve => { resolve(1); resolve(2); }); here bar is 1

So you don't need all the clearTimeout or worry about race conditions 👍

function promiseTimeout(ms, promise) {
  return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
    setTimeout(() => reject(new Error("promise timeout")), ms);
    promise.then(resolve).catch(reject);
  });
}
