Are Promises in JavaScript like Exception Handling in Java?

Just like the try(), catch() and throw() in Java as an exception handling is like then() and catch() in JavaScript as a promise!? Just a beginner asking some questions. Please don’t judge. xD

Answer

try/catch detect the error itself and transfer control to catch part. this syntax exists in js too.

but in then/catch, you must notify occurring an error yourself (with calling reject). This means you can notify error when you recognize an error is occurred. that error can be a real or not real error (programming/logical error).
