ASYNC003warningPro
fire-and-forget-task
Fire-and-forget tasks hide errors and can cause silent failures
Applies to: Go, JavaScript, Python, TypeScript
Why this matters
When you create an async task and don't await it or add error handling, any exceptions will be silently ignored. You won't know if something failed until you notice missing data or corrupted state.
