JavaScript Concurrency

← Back to Language-Specific Concurrency

JavaScript uses a single-threaded event loop that processes callbacks from an event queue. Async/await provides syntactic sugar over promises for non-blocking I/O. Web Workers enable true parallelism by running JavaScript in separate threads with message passing.

Key Properties

• Single-threaded Event Loop
• Web Workers for Parallelism
• Async-Await (JavaScript)
