Introduction
JavaScript has evolved significantly with the introduction of ES6 (ECMAScript 2015) and later versions. These updates brought powerful new features that improve code readability, maintainability, and efficiency. In this blog, we’ll explore key ES6+ features with examples to help you write better JavaScript code.

- Let & Const vs Var
- Arrow Functions
- Template Literals
- Destructuring Assignment
- Spread & Rest Operators
- Default Parameters
- Enhanced Object Literals
- Promises & Async/Await
- Modules (import/export)
- Map & Set Data Structures
- Optional Chaining & Nullish Coalescing
- BigInt & Symbol
- New String & Array Methods
- Conclusion
1. Let & Const vs Var
Before ES6, JavaScript only had var for variable declaration. ES6 introduced let and const, which provide better scoping and immutability.
Example:
var x = 10; // Function-scoped
let y = 20; // Block-scoped
const z = 30; // Cannot be reassigned
✅ Use let for variables that change and const for fixed values.
2. Arrow Functions
Arrow functions provide a concise syntax and lexical this binding.
Example:
const add = (a, b) => a + b;
console.log(add(5, 10)); // Output: 15
✅ No need for function keyword and explicit return statement for single expressions.
3. Template Literals
Template literals allow for easier string interpolation.
Example:
const name = "John";
console.log(`Hello, ${name}!`); // Output: Hello, John!
✅ Use backticks “ instead of quotes for multi-line and dynamic strings.
4. Destructuring Assignment
Extract values from arrays and objects easily.
Example:
const person = { name: "Alice", age: 25 };
const { name, age } = person;
console.log(name, age); // Output: Alice 25
✅ Helps in cleaner code and improved readability.
5. Spread & Rest Operators
The spread operator (...) expands arrays/objects, while the rest operator collects function arguments.
Example:
const arr = [1, 2, 3];
const newArr = [...arr, 4, 5]; // [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
✅ Used for copying, merging, and flexible function parameters.
6. Default Parameters
Set default values for function parameters.
Example:
function greet(name = "Guest") {
console.log(`Hello, ${name}!`);
}
greet(); // Output: Hello, Guest!
✅ Avoids undefined when arguments are missing.
7. Enhanced Object Literals
Simplifies object creation and methods.
Example:
const age = 30;
const person = { name, age, greet() { console.log("Hi!"); } };
✅ Cleaner and more readable object syntax.
8. Promises & Async/Await
Handling asynchronous operations made easier with Promises and async/await.
Example:
const fetchData = async () => {
let data = await fetch("https://api.example.com");
console.log(await data.json());
};
fetchData();
✅ No more callback hell!
9. Modules (import/export)
Allows modular code structure.
Example:
// file1.js
export const greet = () => console.log("Hello!");
// file2.js
import { greet } from "./file1.js";
greet();
✅ Enables code reusability.
10. Map & Set Data Structures
Efficient data structures introduced in ES6.
Example:
let mySet = new Set([1, 2, 3]); // Unique values only
let myMap = new Map([["name", "Alice"]]);
✅ Useful for unique collections and key-value pairs.
11. Optional Chaining & Nullish Coalescing
Handle nested objects without errors.
Example:
const user = { profile: { name: "John" } };
console.log(user.profile?.name ?? "Guest");
✅ Prevents undefined errors.
12. BigInt & Symbol
New primitive data types.
Example:
const bigNum = 12345678901234567890n;
console.log(bigNum);
✅ BigInt handles large numbers safely.
13. New String & Array Methods
Useful methods introduced in ES6+.
Example:
console.log("Hello".padStart(10, "*") );
console.log([1,2,3].includes(2));
✅ Enhances string and array manipulation.
14. Conclusion
ES6+ has transformed JavaScript into a more powerful and readable language. Understanding and utilizing these features will make your code more efficient and maintainable.
✅ Start applying these ES6+ features in your projects today!
