Asynchronous in JavaScript

I bang my head against the wall with an understanding of asynchrony.

  • Please tell me, is it possible to achieve asynchrony in JS without using timers (setTimeout)?
  • In theory, this is the same thread, pulling on which we can write asynchronous code?
  • And as I understand it, writing callbacks without using a timer is not advisable, because asynchrony will be lost?

Can you give an example of asynchronous code without using timers, promises, etc.?

Timers are just an example of an asynchronous call. There is synchronous execution – when they wait for the result of executing some function before starting another job. And there is asynchronous, when, accordingly, they do not wait, and begin to do something else
