JavaScript Event Loop Explained

JavaScript is single-threaded, but asynchronous behavior is managed by the Event Loop. 👉 Execution Order: 1️⃣ Call Stack – Executes synchronous code 2️⃣ Microtask Queue – Promises (High Priority) 3️⃣ Macrotask Queue – setTimeout, setInterval, DOM events (Low Priority) The Event Loop processes all microtasks before executing the next macrotask. That’s why Promise callbacks run before setTimeout — even with 0ms delay. Understanding this mechanism is crucial for writing efficient and non-blocking JavaScript applications. #JavaScript #EventLoop #AsyncJS #FrontendDeveloper #WebDevelopment 🚀
