Arrow Functions

Traditionally, functions are defined in JavaScript by using the “function” keyword. In ES2015, arrow functions were introduced. For C# folks, this will look similar to lambdas. Let’s first look at a traditional function syntax…

function getName(){
    return ‘Bongo’;
}
console.log(getName()); 

The output would be “Bongo”. Let’s change the syntax to using arrow function syntax…

let getName = () => {
     return ‘Bongo’;
}
console.log(getName()); 

This would also output “Bongo” to the console. Basically, arrow functions made the syntax for writing functions cleaner and smaller.

Happy Coding!

Unleashing Creativity with the Canvas API

The Canvas API stands as one of the web’s most powerful tools for creating dynamic, interactive graphics. Unlike SVG, Canvas operates at the pixel level, making it ideal for games, data visualizations, and real-time graphics processing. With a simple HTML element and JavaScript, developers can create everything from basic shapes to complex animations that push the boundaries of what’s possible in the browser.
