```javascript console.log("Start"); setTimeout(() => { console.log("Timeout 1"); Promise.resolve().then(() => console.log("Promise inside Timeout")); }, 0); Promise.resolve() .then(() => { console.log("Promise 0"); setTimeout(() => console.log("Timeout inside Promise"), 0); }) .catch(() => console.log("Promise 1")) .then(() => console.log("Promise 2")); function foo() { Promise.resolve().then(() => { console.log("Promise 3"); foo(); }); } foo(); requestAnimationFrame(() => { console.log("RequestAnimationFrame"); }); console.log("End"); // Start // END // "Promise 0" // Promise 2 // // Timeout 1 // Promise inside Timeout // RequestAnimationFrame // Timeout inside Promise ```

This example demonstrates the order of execution of synchronous code, microtasks (Promises), macrotasks (setTimeout), and requestAnimationFrame.
Explanation of the output order:
-
Synchronous code executes immediately:
- "Start"
- "End"
-
Microtasks (Promises) execute after the current stack:
- "Promise 0" (from the first Promise)
- "Promise 2" (after catch)
- "Promise 3" (from the recursive call to foo, which queues a new Promise in microtasks)
- The recursion of foo() creates an infinite chain of microtasks, but browsers limit the depth to prevent blocking.
-
Macrotasks (setTimeout with 0) execute after microtasks:
- "Timeout 1"
- "Timeout inside Promise"
-
Inside "Timeout 1" there is a Promise that is queued in microtasks after this macrotask:
- "Promise inside Timeout"
-
requestAnimationFrame is called after rendering, usually after macrotasks:
- "RequestAnimationFrame"
The approximate final order is:
Start
End
Promise 0
Promise 2
Promise 3
Timeout 1
Promise inside Timeout
RequestAnimationFrame
Timeout inside Promise
Note that due to recursion, microtasks can accumulate, which may lead to an infinite loop or stack overflow in real conditions.
A simplified example code demonstrating microtasks and macrotasks:
console.log('Start');
setTimeout(() => console.log('Timeout'), 0);
Promise.resolve().then(() => console.log('Promise'));
console.log('End');
The output will be:
Start
End
Promise
Timeout
