Promises are, just like callbacks, a way of dealing with things being asynchronous – when we don’t know for certain in what order things will happen. But promises are more powerful than callbacks because they compose – you can combine promises and chain them, all kinds of cool stuff – I’ve showed you some in this video, but there is WAY more you’ll be able to do when you get comfortable with promises.
