The Promise'd land

Summary:
JavaScript done correctly, especially NodeJS, can become the land of nested callback hell very quickly. But fear not my fellow learners, I’m here to lead you to the Promise’d land. With my faithful companion Q, not the one from Star Trek TNG you geek, we will explain how you can banish these nested callbacks, and find yourself safely nestled in the land of milk and honey.
