Using the Nullish Coalescing Operator (??)

The nullish coalescing operator (??) provides a way to handle null or undefined values in your code by providing a default value. This operator is particularly useful when you want to avoid the pitfalls of falsy values like 0 or "".

✨ Key Takeaways:

  • Simplifies the handling of null or undefined values.

  • Ensures that default values are only used when truly needed.

  • Avoids issues with other falsy values (e.g., 0, "").

Happy coding! 🚀
