Choose explicit and semantic code constructs that enhance readability over more concise but less clear alternatives. This improves code maintainability and reduces cognitive load for developers.
Key practices:
&&
in JSX to make the conditional logic explicit and avoid potential rendering issuesendsWith()
instead of manual string indexing operationsExample transformations:
// Avoid: && operator in JSX (can cause rendering issues)
{ENABLE_DEV_WARNINGS && heyDeveloper}
// Prefer: explicit ternary
{ENABLE_DEV_WARNINGS ? heyDeveloper : null}
// Avoid: manual string operations
toPathname[toPathname.length - 1] === "/"
// Prefer: semantic methods
toPathname.endsWith("/")
This approach makes code intentions clearer, reduces the chance of subtle bugs, and makes the codebase more accessible to developers of varying experience levels.
