A Promise is a proxy for a value not necessarily known when the promise is created.
It allows you to associate handlers with an asynchronous action's eventual success
value or failure reason.
*/

fetch("https://myAPI")
.then((res) => {
// successfully got data
resolve(res);
})
.catch((err) => {
// an error occured
