<script src="async.min.js"></script>
require(['async'], function(async) {});
I recommend to use Aigle.
It is optimized for Promise handling and has almost the same functionality as neo-async.
$ npm install neo-async
var async = require('neo-async');
$ npm install neo-async
$ ln -s ./node_modules/neo-async ./node_modules/async
var async = require('async');
bower install neo-async

The original async package offers a wide array of functions for working with asynchronous code. Neo-async claims to offer similar functionality with improved performance.
Bluebird is a full-featured promise library with a focus on innovative features and performance. It can be used as an alternative to neo-async for handling asynchronous operations using promises instead of callbacks.
Q is a tool for making and composing asynchronous promises in JavaScript. It's an older promise library that can serve similar purposes to neo-async but with a different style of handling async operations.
