I realize you can also just nest generateHTML inside an arrow function to work as a callback
btn.addEventListener("click", () => {
getJSON(astroUrl, (json) => {
json.people.map((person) => {
getJSON(wikiUrl + person.name, (data) => {
generateHTML(data);
});
});
});
});
How is it different from simply referencing generateHTML?
btn.addEventListener("click", () => {
getJSON(astroUrl, (json) => {
json.people.map((person) => {
getJSON(wikiUrl + person.name, generateHTML);
});
});
});
