This looks pretty neat. Having worked with async code before Promises were everywhere, they are a real trip to learn to use. Although the idea is used throughout the programming stack, it's definitely something useful to learn.
I think the coolest part of async/await style is that you can use try/catch to get errors instead of having to add a new function for every promise you unwrap.

Haha that's interesting! That was actually the main reason I disliked
async/await, I had to wrap everything in atry/catch.Guess it all depends on what your preferences are.
