Spoiler: JavaScript never really "pauses". Let’s say we have three threads, thread1, thread2, and thread3. When the compiler executes the sleep () method it sleeps (Stop the executes) currently executing thread and control flow moved to another thread. In this post, I'll discuss how you can achieve that and what it really means to "pause" or "sleep" in JavaScript. This sleep thread java method is used to sleep the currently executing thread for the specified amount of time. This is an efficient means of making processor time available to the other threads. One of those features are Promises, which are probably the most widely used feature in JavaScript after ES5 was released.īut one of the things which JavaScript misses is a way to "pause" execution for a while and resume it later. sleep causes the current thread to suspend execution for a specified period. More and more ideas and features are being ported from different languages and being integrated in JavaScript.
And it hasn't been the same since ES5 was released.
