p-queue: TypeScript Concurrency Control Done Right

Coffee count: 3 - perfectly caffeinated for some TypeScript deep-diving

Today I’m analyzing p-queue, one of those libraries that makes you appreciate when someone solves a hard problem really well. This is Sindre Sorhus’s take on promise queue management with concurrency control, and after digging through its 4,755 lines across 14 files, I can see why it’s become a go-to solution.

What Makes p-queue Special

The README is refreshingly honest - this project is “feature complete” and they’re not planning major new development. Sometimes that’s exactly what you want: a stable, well-designed tool that does one thing exceptionally well.
