Where to find what

I think it's important we set up a document about the implementation of promises in v8, where to find what and what hooks are available.

It should bring users up to speed on the relevant code and allow them to participate in the discussion as well as serve as a reference.

The glossary PR now includes links to the appropriate V8 implementation details.

I'd love to have a tutorial explaining V8 promises and how they work end to end with node (rather than just the glossary).

chrisdickinson commented

I'll work on that. Would you mind PR'ing a 200-300 word doc giving common uses of promises (with a focus on common use cases, assuming no alternate implementations are used)?

benjamingr commented

I'll start working on PRs for patterns and I'll add some examples of promise usages.
