This code sample demonstrates a deferred-call pattern for ActionScript 3, showing how to queue functions and execute them on the next animation frame. It uses the `Event.ENTER_FRAME` event to schedule callbacks, adding a listener when the queue is first populated and removing it after the pending calls are flushed. The `callNextFrame` method stores each callback and optional arguments in an array, and the `onEnterForCallNextFrame` handler shifts through the queue, applying each function with `Function.apply`. The implementation relies on the `Event` class and `IEventDispatcher` methods `addEventListener` and `removeEventListener` to trigger the batch processing.

implements IEventDispatcher, for when you can't subclass EventDispatcher directly

This example shows how to implement the Flash `IEventDispatcher` interface in a custom class when subclassing `EventDispatcher` directly is not possible. It demonstrates a composition pattern where the class creates an internal `EventDispatcher` instance, passing itself as the target in the constructor. All required interface methods—`addEventListener`, `removeEventListener`, `dispatchEvent`, `hasEventListener`, and `willTrigger`—are delegated to this private `dispatcher` object, forwarding calls with the appropriate parameters. The code uses ActionScript 3’s `flash.events.IEventDispatcher` and `flash.events.EventDispatcher` APIs, with no external data or rendering involved.

custom-easing.ts - a set of easing functions that generate arrays of tweens/frames; when placed in an animation framework/library they emulate animations using said easing function. Since, the easing frames can be placed are generated on initial run and almost every conventional animation library/framework supports multiple animation frames, you get great performance together with even better support.

This example shows a suite of customizable easing functions that generate precomputed animation frames, which can be plugged into any animation library for smooth, performant transitions. It implements traditional easings like Quad, Elastic, Spring, and Bounce, alongside a Bézier curve-based easing function adapted from `bezier-easing`. The code precomputes animation frames based on easing parameters, caching optimal durations for spring effects. It also demonstrates cross-environment utilities for server-side rendering, including browser object abstraction and CSS value parsing with unit and color conversion.

async-for-each

This example demonstrates a sequential asynchronous loop over an array, where each item is processed only after the previous callback completes. It shows how `asyncForEach` awaits a user-provided callback that delays execution using a custom `waitFor` promise wrapper around `setTimeout`. The code uses the native `async`/`await` syntax and a `for` loop to ensure the array `[1, 2, 3]` is logged in order, with a one-second pause between each item. The visible data source is a hardcoded array in the `start` function, and the rendering approach is console output.

Infinite Queue

A queue processes tasks across six parallel slots, each rendering a horizontal bar that animates its width, then collapses and fades before removal. The demo appends div elements via d3.select and transitions, scheduling new tasks with setTimeout to sustain activity. A sentinel task that never invokes its callback keeps the queue running indefinitely, using d3.queue’s defer method. The code highlights the queue’s unbounded memory growth as results accumulate, a trade-off of this infinite-lifecycle pattern.

Async/await 5

This example visualizes the flow of a sequential asynchronous function, showing how each awaited promise resolves in a chain before the next begins. The code defines an `async` function with three sequential `await` calls—`doA()`, `doB(a)`, and `doC(b)`—where each step passes its result into the next. The visualization maps this dependency chain, highlighting the blocking nature of each await and the data handoff between stages. It relies on JavaScript’s native `async`/`await` syntax, with no external libraries, and renders a linear timeline of the function’s execution order.

Async/await 3

This example visualizes the nested callback structure of an asynchronous JavaScript function as a branching tree diagram. It shows how sequential `doA`, `doB`, and `doC` calls with error-handling callbacks create a multi-level flow. The visualization uses a force-directed layout from D3’s `d3.forceSimulation` to position nodes, with links rendered as curved paths. The code snippet from the gist is the direct source, and the rendering approach highlights the increasing depth of callbacks as the program progresses.

Basic promise structure

This example demonstrates a basic promise chain controlling sequential execution of asynchronous functions triggered by a user click. It shows how JavaScript Promises manage ordered flow, with each function logging its completion status before resolving. The code uses native Promise constructors and the `.then()` method to chain `function1()`, `function2()`, and `function3()` after an initial `initialFunction()`. The interaction is tied to a jQuery click handler on `#loadAudio`, and all resolutions print colored console messages via `console.log`. No data sources or visual outputs are involved; the focus is purely on the control-flow pattern.

Immediate Transitions

This example demonstrates how to force D3 transitions to complete instantly by overriding `requestAnimationFrame` and `Date.now`. The code uses D3 v3’s `d3.select("body").transition()` with a five-second duration to animate the background to red, but then intercepts animation frame scheduling and advances the clock to infinity, causing the transition to jump immediately to its final state. The browser’s animation loop is bypassed, and the synchronous flush executes all pending callbacks at once.
