JS: good practices

1. Be careful when returning some values

Ex:

function test(){

return

{

cacheable: true;

}

}

console.log(test()) ;

 

 

// console.log will return undefined, all of this is happening because the js compiler puts ; (semicolon) after the return statement. Therefore, it’s good practice to have curly braces directly after the return statment

ex: return {

cacheable: true;

}

2. Writing comments

The JS compiler will ignore the white spaces and comments so we can do something like this:

var

// this is the name of the user

firstName,

// this is the surname of the user

surname,

 

// this should be always more than 0
