await errors in JavaScript

JavaScriptAsync/Awaittry/catch with asyncintermediate

What this snippet does

try/catch with await works just like synchronous error handling — any rejected promise inside try is caught.

Expected output

{ id: 1, name: 'User1' }
Error: Invalid ID

Why practise typing this

Typing async/await code builds muscle memory for the symbols and indentation JavaScript uses most, which prose-based typing tests never cover. DevType measures your words per minute and accuracy on this snippet and tracks the individual characters you mistype, so later lessons can target them.
