This pull request includes updates to Syntax Editor Macros, refactored using ECMAScript 12 to support modern JavaScript functionality and improved code clarity. Key updates include:
Modern ECMAScript Syntax: Updated macros to leverage ECMAScript 12 features like optional chaining (?.), nullish coalescing (??), and logical assignment operators, resulting in more readable and efficient code.
Improved Maintainability: Replaced legacy JavaScript patterns with modern syntax, reducing code complexity and enhancing maintainability.
Compatibility and Consistency: Ensured macros are consistent with ECMAScript 12 standards, aligning with best practices for more reliable cross-environment support.
Testing & Validation
Manual Testing: Verified all macros in development and staging environments, ensuring full compatibility with ECMAScript 12 and existing functionality.
Code Review: Conducted peer review to validate syntax and functionality consistency across all updated macros.
Additional Notes
This update helps future-proof the macros, supporting ongoing improvements and compatibility with modern JavaScript standards.
