Here’s a preview of using promises and async functions from unit 7

[source,js]
----
async function fetchImage(url) {
  const resp = await fetch(url);
  const blob = await resp.blob();
  return createImageBitmap(blob);
};

fetchImage('my-image.png').then(image => {
  // do something with image
});
----

To achieve this without promises or async functions, you would need to write much more obtuse code.

[source,js]
----
function fetchImage(url, cb) {
  fetch(url, function(resp) {
    resp.blob(function(blob) {
      createImageBitmap(blob, cb);
    })
  })
};

fetchImage('my-image.png', function(image) {
  // do something with image
});
