Understanding Asynchrony in Javascript

In this video I present a tutorial on asynchrony in Javascript. I cover what asynchrony is, what I mean by it in the context of web development, how the browser handles asynchronous actions (the event loop, the task queue, etc.), and the three main ways to deal with asynchronous behavior (callbacks, Promises with .then, and async/await).
