I have been struggling into understanding of monad.
And, I concluded monad is box of values in which operates some specific task.
so, Can I say Future and Promise are also kind of monad?

If Promise refers to the JS Spec, it is not a monad: https://stackoverflow.com/a/50173415/1614973 – Dmitri Zaitsev May 22 '19 at 01:59

Not sure about Promise but Future is considered monadic.
