async and sync sleep functions
npm install a-mimira-mimirBarebones sleep functions. As simple and boring as it gets
``ts
import { sleep } from "a-mimir";
// block the current thread (doesn't work in the browser main thread, but works in node and web workers)
sleep.sync(500); // block for 500ms
// schedule an action to run later, without blocking the main thread. works everywhere
const promise = sleep.async(500); // promise which resolves in 500ms
promise.then(() => {
console.log("is printed second");
});
console.log("is printed first");
`
- sleep.sync relies on the globals SharedArrayBuffer, Int32Array, and Atomics.wait.sleep.async
- relies on the globals Promise and setTimeout`.
