Top 10 Coding Examples and Tips for

JavaScript Code

1. Use strict mode to enforce modern JavaScript syntax and


catch errors early.
2. Always declare variables with const or let, rather than var.
3. Use arrow functions instead of function for cleaner and
concise code.
4. Make use of destructuring to extract values from arrays and
objects into variables.
5. Use template literals for string concatenation and embedding
expressions.
6. Prefer forEach over for loop for simple iterations.
7. Make use of higher-order functions like map, filter, and
reduce to process arrays.
8. Avoid using global variables and always use const or let to
scope variables.

9. Use modules to organize your code and avoid naming
collisions.
10. Always initialize variables with default values to avoid
undefined values.

strict mode example


Use strict mode to enforce modern JavaScript syntax and catch
errors early:

'use strict';

Use const and let


Always declare variables with const or let, rather than var:

// Use let
let name = 'John Doe';

// Use const
const PI = 3.14;

Use Arrows functions


Use arrow functions instead of function for cleaner and concise
code:

// Function expression
const multiply = (a, b) => a * b;

Laurence Svekis https://basescripts.com/


// Implicit return
const square = x => x * x;

Use Destructuring to get values from arrays


Make use of destructuring to extract values from arrays and
objects into variables:

// Destructuring arrays
const colors = ['red', 'green', 'blue'];
const [first, second, third] = colors;

// Destructuring objects
const person = {
name: 'John Doe',
age: 30,
job: 'Software Engineer'
};
const { name, age, job } = person;

Use template literals


Use template literals for string concatenation and embedding
expressions:

const name = 'John Doe';


const message = `Hello, ${name}!`;

Laurence Svekis https://basescripts.com/


Use forEach over for loop
Prefer forEach over for loop for simple iterations:

const numbers = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5];


numbers.forEach(number => console.log(number));

use of higher-order functions


Make use of higher-order functions like map, filter, and reduce to
process arrays:

const numbers = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5];

// Use map
const double = numbers.map(number => number * 2);

// Use filter
const even = numbers.filter(number => number % 2 ===
0);

// Use reduce
const sum = numbers.reduce((acc, number) => acc +
number, 0);

Avoid Global Variables


Avoid using global variables and always use const or let to scope
variables:

// Global variable (not recommended)

Laurence Svekis https://basescripts.com/


let name = 'John Doe';

// Scoped variable (recommended)


function sayHello() {
const name = 'John Doe';
console.log(`Hello, ${name}!`);
}

Avoid Naming Collisions


Use modules to organize your code and avoid naming collisions:

// math.js
export const PI = 3.14;
export const add = (a, b) => a + b;

// main.js
import { PI, add } from './math.js';
console.log(PI); // 3.14
console.log(add(1, 2)); // 3

Initialize variables with default values


Always initialize variables with default values to avoid undefined
values:

// Default value
let name = 'John Doe';

// Default value with destructuring


const person = {

Laurence Svekis https://basescripts.com/


name = 'John Doe',
age: 30
};
const { name, age = 0 } = person;
