The Modern JavaScript Bootcamp (2019) - Async/Await Challenge

The video tutorial covers the process of converting regular JavaScript functions to async functions using the async/await syntax. It includes challenges that require converting 'getCountry' and 'getLocation' functions, ensuring no changes are needed in the main application code. The tutorial also guides on creating a new function 'getCurrentCountry' that combines async functions to simplify code. Testing and optimization techniques are discussed to ensure the new async functions work as expected.

What are the two steps required to convert the 'get country' function to an async function?

What is the significance of using 'await' with the fetch call in the async functions?

What should be done if the response status is not 200 in the 'get country' function?

Explain how the 'await' operator is used in the context of the 'get country' function.

What changes were made to the 'get location' function to convert it to an async function?

Describe the purpose of the new function 'get current country'.

In what way does the new async function simplify the code compared to the previous implementation?

What is the expected output when the 'get current country' function is called successfully?

How can you test if the changes made to the functions are working correctly?

How does the 'get current country' function utilize the 'get location' and 'get country' functions?
