Understanding JavaScript Callbacks and Async Execution

A callback function is a function that is passed as an argument to another function and executed after a task is completed. Callbacks are the backbone of asynchronous JavaScript. They help handle tasks like: ⏱️ Timers (setTimeout) 🌐 API calls 🖱️ Event handling Without callbacks, JavaScript would block execution and slow everything down. ⚠️ Too many nested callbacks can lead to callback hell, which is why we later use Promises and Async/Await.
