“[...] in this tutorial, we’re going to learn about Promises, but we’ll start at the beginning. I’ll share all of the critical bits of context that took me years to understand. And by the end, hopefully, you’ll have a much deeper understanding of what Promises are and how to use them effectively.”

How to use Corepack

www.totaltypescript.com github.com/mattpocock

According to Corepack’s documentation, it is “an experimental tool to help with managing versions of your package managers.

This blog post gives a quick introduction to this tool.
