In the world of JavaScript, asynchronous programming has become an integral part of building modern, responsive applications. With the introduction of async/await syntax, developers can write cleaner and more readable asynchronous code. However, when it comes to inheritance and object-oriented programming principles, things can get a bit tricky.

In this article, we’ll dive into the intricacies of inheritance in asynchronous programming and provide you with practical examples to help you master this concept.

Before we begin, let’s quickly review the basics of inheritance in JavaScript. Inheritance allows objects to inherit properties and methods from other objects, promoting code reuse and maintainability. JavaScript supports prototypal inheritance, where objects inherit directly from other objects.

// Parent class
class Vehicle {
  constructor(make, model) {
    this.make = make;
    this.model = model;
  }

  getDetails() {
    return `${this.make} ${this.model}`;
  }
}

// Child class inheriting from Vehicle
class Car extends Vehicle {
  constructor(make, model, year) {
    super(make, model);
    this.year = year;
  }

  getFullDetails() {
    return `${super.getDetails()} (${this.year})`;
  }
}…
