Stumped on typewriter effect
I have some JavaScript where I need to create a typewriter effect that types and then backspaces
. I
've gotten something to work on this codepen
:

The problem is
, I need to do this for an array of words
, and this is really stumping me
. It seems like promises are key here
, but I can
't get my promises to work correctly
.
I have a work in progress codepen here
:
https://codepen.io/vince1444/pen/oNRbNGd?editors=1111
I
'm able to print out the first letter in each word sequentially so far
.

.
Edit
:
I was able to get the all the words printing sequentially now
, but I still need to implement backspacing
.
