Using promises is forbidden in places where the TypeScript compiler allows them but they are not handled properly. These situations can often arise due to a missing await keyword or just a misunderstanding of the way async functions are handled/awaited.

Bad Practice

const promise = Promise.resolve('value');

if (promise) {
  // Do something
}

const val = promise ? 123 : 456;

while (promise) {
  // Do something
}

Recommended

const promise = Promise.resolve('value');

if (await promise) {
  // Do something
}

const val = (await promise) ? 123 : 456;

while (await promise) {
  // Do something
}

for (const value of [1, 2, 3]) {
  await doSomething(value);
}

new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
  // Do something
  resolve();
});

const eventEmitter = new EventEmitter();
eventEmitter.on('some-event', () => {
  doSomething();
});
