# Promises in Node — Node.js

Source: https://www.geekswithgeeks.com/en/nodejs/node-promises

> A cleaner shape for async results, with built-in Promise-based APIs.

## Native Promise APIs

Many built-ins now ship a Promise-based version directly — no wrapping needed.

```javascript
import { readFile } from "node:fs/promises";

readFile("notes.txt", "utf8")
  .then((data) => console.log(data))
  .catch((err) => console.error("Failed:", err.message));
```

## Promise.all for parallel work

`Promise.all` runs several async operations concurrently and waits for all of them to finish.
