promise/avoid-new Style ​

What it does ​

Disallow creating promises with new Promise().

Why is this bad? ​

Many cases that use new Promise() could be refactored to use an async function. async is considered more idiomatic in modern JavaScript.

Examples ​

Examples of incorrect code for this rule:

javascript
function foo() {
  return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
    /* ... */
  });
}

Examples of correct code for this rule:

javascript
async function foo() {
  // ...
}
const bar = await Promise.all([baz(), bang()]);
