JS Promises - Execution Order and Timing

As long as I've been working with JS (just look at how old this blog is to begin getting an idea), I've continued to struggle with execution order and wanted to get it clear in my head. The following helped me do that so I wanted to share.


console.time('full execution');
console.time('code block');
function showExecutionOrder(parm) {
    console.time('outside promise');
    new Promise((resolvereject=> {
        console.time('inside promise');
        resolve(parm);
        console.timeEnd('inside promise');
    }).then((data=> {
        // Lookup mdn and invoke the account sync as required
        console.log({ data });
    });
    console.timeEnd('outside promise');
}
console.time('function call');
showExecutionOrder({ foo: true });
console.timeEnd('function call');
console.timeEnd('code block');
console.timeEnd('full execution');
