I understand the difference between both (let locks the reference inside the block, whereas var declares a variable accessible scope-wide).
But considering the singleton pattern module-based:
var singleton = null;
module.exports = () => singleton ? singleton : singleton = newInstance();
Should I declare the singleton variable with let or var ? Is there any difference, considering CommonJS module imports/exports?
>Solution :
There is no difference between let or var, when we are talking about singleton implementation. I have already checked it in my IDE. Considering that using "let" is better practice, I suggest you to use exactly "let" keyword.
