Exercise: Async API Simulation

The preceding demo loaded a rehearsal schedule from offline functions. fetchUser, fetchPosts, and fetchNotifications here are local fixtures, not HTTP calls. Fetch the user first; its ID lets you request posts and notifications concurrently.

javascript
async function loadRoute() {
  const parcel = await getParcel();
  const [driver, depot] = await Promise.all([
    getDriver(parcel.routeId), getDepot(parcel.routeId)
  ]);
  return { driver, depot };
}

The parcel lookup provides the ID first. The other two calls begin together. Promise.all rejects if either request fails; wrap the calls in try/catch for your dashboard's fallback. All three fixture functions are supplied in script.js.

Your Task

  1. Define async loadDashboard() and await fetchUser() before requesting data tied to its ID.
  2. Launch the user’s posts and notifications together with Promise.all, passing the fetched ID to both.
  3. Return { userName, postCount, unreadCount }, counting only unread notifications.
  4. On any rejection, return { userName: "Unknown", postCount: 0, unreadCount: 0 }.
  5. Implement reportDashboard() to log Alex | posts: 3 | unread: 2 from the loaded dashboard. The starter calls it on startup.
