Day 6 of JavaScript30

This challenge was very interesting and I learned a lot of new things. Wes Bos pretty much force you to learn about promises, however he doesn’t go in depth about it in the video that is focused on the task at hand. I recommend to watch this video to get a deeper understanding of promises …
