What are the key differences between Promise.all, Promise.any, Promise.race, and Promise.allSettled in JavaScript?

The key difference lies in how these methods handle multiple promises and their outcomes:

Promise.all:

  • Resolves only when all promises resolve successfully.
  • Rejects immediately if any promise rejects.
  • Use it when all tasks must succeed for the next step to proceed.

Promise.any:

  • Resolves as soon as the first promise fulfills.
  • Rejects only if all promises reject.
  • Use it when you only need the fastest successful result.

Promise.race:

  • Resolves or rejects as soon as the first promise settles (either resolves or rejects).
  • Use it when the timing of the first outcome matters more than whether it succeeded or failed.

Promise.allSettled:

  • Resolves when all promises settle, regardless of whether they resolve or reject.
  • Provides the status and outcome of each promise.
  • Use it when you want to know the result of every promise, even if some fail.
