I haven't done async in node.js, but I thought you could use 
TypeScript/EcmaScript 6 with async/await?

In that case I think it is supposed to use generators/yield, 
which basically is the same as coroutines? So no callbacks?

So you would set up promises and await that they end before 
responding by using:

const promises = [callAsync1(), callAsync2(), callAsync3() ]
results = await Promise.all(promises)

or something like that.
