What is the initial state of a promise created by the new Promise constructor?

When a new promise is created using the Promise constructor, it starts in a state called "pending." This means that the promise is in the process of being resolved or rejected, but neither of these outcomes has occurred yet. The pending state signifies that the asynchronous operation associated with the promise is still ongoing and has not yet produced a value or an error.

As the promise resolves or rejects, it will transition to either the fulfilled state, indicating that the operation completed successfully with a resulting value, or the rejected state, indicating that an error occurred during the operation. However, initially, until the asynchronous operation has concluded, the promise remains in its pending state.
