When To Use the ?? And ||

TLDR The ?? (nullish coalescing) and || (logical OR) operators in JavaScript provide default values when the left-hand side expression is not provided. The ?? operator only checks for null and undefined, allowing other falsy values like 0, false, or an empty string to remain. The || operator checks for all falsy values. The ?? operator is particularly useful for APIs, optional parameters, or dynamic data that may not always be defined.

How to Choose Between SQL, Query Builders, and ORMs in Node.js

TLDR When building Node.js applications with relational databases, developers can choose between raw SQL, query builders, and ORMs. Each approach has its strengths and weaknesses. Raw SQL offers fine-grained control and performance but is complex to manage. Query builders provide a balanced and secure way to create queries, while ORMs offer high-level abstraction for quick development and schema management. Ultimately, the best choice depends on the specific needs of the project and the developer's expertise. A hybrid approach combining these methods can also be effective.
