# Async Functions for  ECMAScript

The introduction of Promises and Generators in ECMAScript presents an opportunity to dramatically improve the language-level model for writing asynchronous code in ECMAScript. The spec text can be found [here](https://tc39.github.io/ecmascript-asyncawait).

This proposal is implemented in a [regenerator](https://github.com/facebook/regenerator) which can compile ES5 code containing `async` and `await` down to vanilla ES5 to run in existing browsers and runtimes.

This repo contains a complete example using a large number of the features of the proposal.  To run this example:

```Shell

npm install

regenerator -r server.asyncawait.js | node

```
