Var, let or const, what to use?
The Javascript world has grown, a lot. Instead of a simple scripting language, it is now used as a full blown programming language for the web. Not to forget it’s server side capabilities with NodeJS. ECMAScript 6 brings some features to make Javascript a more ‘mature’ language. A good example is the new let and const variable types.
