   - **Readability**: Async/Await makes asynchronous code look and behave more like synchronous code. This makes the code cleaner and easier to understand.
   - **Error Handling**: With Async/Await, you can use classic try/catch blocks for error handling, which is more straightforward and intuitive compared to handling errors in callbacks or promise chains.
   - **Avoiding Callback Hell**: With AJAX and callbacks, code can become nested and complicated very quickly, a situation often referred to as "callback hell". This is avoided with async/await, since each step in an async function appears to be a linear, sequential operation, not a nested one.
   - **Improved Debugging**: Debugging async/await code is simpler than debugging promises or callbacks. Each async function operates as a smaller self-contained unit which can be stepped through with debugging tools.
   - **Concurrency Control**: Async/Await makes it easier to control concurrency. For example, with Promise.all() and async/await, you can start several asynchronous tasks all at once and then await them all, which can lead to performance improvements.
+===== Fetch example using async/await (web browser) =====
+We'll use the [[java-script:ajax-fetch|same example]], but with async/await framework instead of ajax:
+<code javascript fetch-async-await.html>
+<!DOCTYPE html>
+<html>
+<body>
+    <div id="data"></div>
+    <script>
+        async function fetchData() {

+                const data = await response.json();
+                data.forEach(user => {
+                    const div = document.getElementById('data');
+                    div.innerHTML += `
+                        <img src="${user.avatar_url}" alt="${user.login}'s avatar" width="100"><br>
