Asünkroonsete

Asünkroonsete refers to asynchronous operations or processes. In computing, an asynchronous operation is one that does not occur at the same time as the main program execution. Instead, it is initiated and then the program continues with other tasks without waiting for the asynchronous operation to complete. Once the asynchronous operation finishes, it signals its completion, often through a callback function or a promise.

This approach is crucial for improving the responsiveness and efficiency of applications, especially in scenarios involving input/output (I/O) operations like network requests, file system access, or user interface interactions. By not blocking the main thread, asynchronous programming prevents the application from freezing and allows it to handle multiple tasks concurrently.

Common examples of asynchronous operations include fetching data from a remote server, reading a large file from disk, or setting a timer to execute code after a delay. Without asynchronous programming, waiting for these operations to finish would make the application appear unresponsive. Modern programming languages and frameworks widely support asynchronous patterns to build scalable and performant software. This contrasts with synchronous operations, where tasks are executed sequentially, and each task must complete before the next one begins.
