Neo-Async

Neo-Async is thought to be used as a drop-in replacement for [Async](https://github.com/caolan/async), it almost fully covers its functionality and runs [faster](#benchmark). Benchmark is [here](#benchmark)! Bluebird's benchmark is [here](https://github.com/suguru03/bluebird/tree/aigle/benchmark)! ## Code Coverage ![coverage](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/wiki/suguru03/neo-async/images/coverage.png) ## Installation ### In a browser ```html ``` ### In an AMD loader ```js require(['async'], function(async) {}); ``` ### Promise and async/await I recommend to use [`Aigle`](https://github.com/suguru03/aigle). It is optimized for Promise handling and has almost the same functionality as `neo-async`. ### Node.js #### standard ```bash $ npm install neo-async ``` ```js var async = require('neo-async'); ``` #### replacement ```bash $ npm install neo-async $ ln -s ./node_modules/neo-async ./node_modules/async ``` ```js var async = require('async'); ``` ### Bower ```bash bower install neo-async ``` ## Feature [JSDoc](http://suguru03.github.io/neo-async/doc/async.html) \* not in Async ### Collections -
