This means that we no longer have to write any Promise object ourselves.

I'd just like to interject for a moment. You still need to write Promises when you actually implement these async functions. Almost all browser and Node APIs are callback-based, not even promise-based so you either need a thin wrapper library that converts them to Promises or do it yourself.

What you don't need anymore is .then chain because that's the whole point of async syntax
