+## JS Promises
+
+When `@await` is used on an expression that is a JS Promise, `tink_await` will extract the `T` from `js.lib.Promise<T>` (if it is a `js.lib.Promise`) and wrap the expression in a check-type statement:
+`($expr : tink.core.Promise<T>)`.
+
+This will leverage the magic of `tink_core` to silently convert the JS promise into a tink promise.
