+## Promise.any
+
+Similar to `Promise.race`, but waits only for the first fulfilled promise and gets its result. If all of the given promises are rejected, then the returned promise is rejected.
+
+The syntax is:
+
+```js
+let promise = Promise.any(iterable);
+```
+
+For instance, here the result will be `1`:
+
+```js run
+Promise.any([
+  new Promise((resolve, reject) => setTimeout(() => reject(new Error("Whoops!")), 1000)),
+  new Promise((resolve, reject) => setTimeout(() => resolve(1), 2000)),
+  new Promise((resolve, reject) => setTimeout(() => resolve(3), 3000))
+]).then(alert); // 1
+```

 ## Promise.resolve/reject
 
 Methods `Promise.resolve` and `Promise.reject` are rarely needed in modern code, because `async/await` syntax (we'll cover it [a bit later](info:async-await)) makes them somewhat obsolete.

 Of these five, `Promise.all` is probably the most common in practice.
