Okay, so they're kicking off with arrow functions and immediately highlighting the syntax difference. It's good they're starting with the basics of what a regular function looks like to draw that contrast.
Ah, the 'fat arrow' (`=>`) is the key distinguishing feature, makes sense why they call it an arrow function. It's interesting how much of the boilerplate they manage to strip away just with that symbol.
So we've seen the basic structure, but I'm curious to see how this translates into actual code examples. The comparison to regular functions is helpful for understanding the motivation behind these new syntaxes.

Early in the tutorial [0:00], the core concept of arrow functions is introduced as a more concise syntax for regular JavaScript functions. The speaker highlights that traditional functions are defined using the `function` keyword, a name, parameter list, and a code block, often returning values with the `return` keyword. Arrow functions eliminate the `function` keyword and, by definition, are anonymous. Their defining characteristic, the "fat arrow" (`=>`), directly follows the parameter list and precedes the code block [0:15], distinguishing them syntactically from their predecessors.
