+
+async function debounceFunc({ foo }) {
+  // optionally, add a cancel event (wasCanceled is a "function" to check later if it was canceled)

+)

+debounceAsync({ foo: 'bar' }) // delay the execution – again
+
+debounced.cancel() // optional, cancel the execution
+debounced.addCancelEvent(myCancelMethod) // alternatively, you can add the cancel event like so
+```
+
+In order to use `this.addCancelEvent` you need to use a `function()`, and not an arrow function.
