Episode notes

There's many ways to define a function in JavaScript. Probably the two most popular ones are if you're just defining like a top level function, not a method or ever. I always prefer the first, which is a named function over sticking in a very well. But there has been a recent kind of thing that's popped up in my code base,. So in TypeScript, you can define the inputs, the outputs, like everything about a function as a type and then assign it to the function much more easily using the const do something way. Even if you're not using an arrow function. If you're saying const do something is equal to function do something. Rather than doing them separately

In this episode of Syntax, Wes and Scott talk about their preferred coding styles and preferences they use, and why.
