This is the first time I saw this -
event => {
// do something
}
If I am right , in arrow syntax , we do not mention the function name. Its something like this
function ( () => {
// Do something
});
Why he has written 'event' ?

If you had more than one parameter, or none at all, you'd have parentheses before the arrow like in the second example.

But after understanding

function , today I really feels so happy and excited for further journey. Thanks for helping me in my JAVASCRIPT journey Steven . :)
