I'm looking at the following code here:
cache[cacheKey] = new Promise(async(resolve) => { ...
Why is async added before the function? What's the difference between:
cache[cacheKey] = new Promise((resolve) => { ...

depends on the body of the `(resolve) => { ...`. there is probably an `await` in there somewhere. :) – Davin Tryon May 26 '17 at 09:16

To answer the literal question: Because the author is clueless about promises. For the rest, I hope the duplicate target provides enough insight :-) – Bergi May 26 '17 at 09:20
