queueMicrotask and Ordering

Control execution order precisely.

Meet queueMicrotask

queueMicrotask is a direct way to schedule a microtask without creating a Promise. The callback runs after current synchronous code but before any macrotask.

It is the cleanest tool for deferring work to the very next microtask checkpoint.

Basic Usage

Pass a function to queueMicrotask. It runs after the synchronous code finishes.

console.log('start');
queueMicrotask(() => console.log('microtask'));
console.log('end');
