10,669 PointsIndentation & differentiating between regular function and arrow function
Great presentation! I just thought there were 2 things that could be added to make it better:
- Include indentation withing the function body
- Make clear the difference between a regular anonymous function vs an (anonymous) arrow function, as some beginners watching the video may not be aware of this.
For example:
-
Anonymous regular function (declaration):
function (){ \s console.log("I am an anonymous function with clear indentation in my function body.") }
-
Arrow function
()=> { \s console.log("I am an arrow function with clear indentation in my function body.") }
Please, note that I have used the JS metacharacter \s to indicate space/ indentation as I couldn't find the right markdown for it.

And spaces are not collapsed inside a Markdown code section. So you can just put the actual number of spaces that you want displayed.
For example:
<-- two spaces
<-- eight spaces
