Did you know `foo ??= "default"` is a thing? In JavaScript as well, not just PHP?
I didn't. But now I do. And now you do too!
It's useful sometimes.
For reference: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Operators/Nullish_coalescing_assignment
MDN Web DocsNullish coalescing assignment (??=) - JavaScript | MDNThe nullish coalescing assignment (??=) operator, also known as the logical nullish assignment operator, only evaluates the right operand and assigns to the left if the left operand is nullish (null or undefined).
@bnijbakker nice one. Thanks.
On the other hand: it lowers the entry hurdle for new devs on the project to write
`if (foo === null) foo = “default”`
