• An object that is returned by a function that has not yet completed its work. The promise literally represents a promise made by the function that it will eventually return a result through the Promise object. When the called function finishes its work asynchronously, a function on the promise object called a resolution (or fulfillment, or completion) handler is called to let the original caller know that the task is complete. ← MDN Web Docs
