[ES2015] var, let and const

var, let and const

using var is an issue because var is hoisted.
var is function scope, let is block scope.
let is the new var.
const is a constant. it is for something that is only going to be defined once. You can not redefine const.
const is not exactly immutable, the values in const can sometimes be changed, for example if it’s an object and you want to chaneg property values inside, you can. But you can reassign that whole object again.
const will never be reassigned, but it can change. (e.g. Arrays and Objects)
You should always use const if you do not really need to change the variable. You should minimize mutable state
There is comfort in knowing that something will never change.
the problem with var is the scope. let aims to resolve that with local scope.
using var is not recommended because of it’s scoping issues.
