javascript async await fetch code example

Example 1: async function fetchJson

async function getUserAsync(name) 
{
  let response = await fetch(`https://api.github.com/users/${name}`);
  let data = await response.json()
  return data;
}

getUserAsync('yourUsernameHere')
  .then(data => console.log(data));

Example 2: async fetch api call

async function getUserAsync(name) {
  try{
    let response = await fetch(`https://api.github.com/users/${name}`);
    return await response.json();
  }catch(err){
    console.error(err);
    // Handle errors here
  }
}

Example 3: js async await

/* Notes:
	1. written like synchronous code
    2. compatible with try/catch blocks
    3. avoids chaining .then statements
    4. async functions always return a promise
    5. function pauses on each await expression
    6. A non promise value is converted to 
       Promise.resolve(value) and then resolved

 // OBJECT METHODS

const obj = {
