Arrow functions in JavaScript, introduced in ES6, provide a concise syntax for writing functions without names, using the '=>' syntax. They can take zero, one, or multiple parameters and return expressions more cleanly than traditional function expressions. An example is provided that demonstrates the creation of a simple arrow function to add two numbers.

Arrow Function in JavaScript
What is arrow function in JavaScript?
Arrow function is one of the features introduced in ES6 for writing better javascript.
Arrow function is similar to a function expression, but it does not have a
name. It is written as a function expression with parenthesis.
The function expression is followed by an arrow ( =>). The arrow function
expression is followed by an expression, which is returned by the arrow function.
let message = (name) => { return `Hello ${name}`; }
Arrow function in javascript is an alternative way to write a function with
shorter and cleaner syntax than a regular function.
An arrow function is also called the fat arrow function.
Syntax of arrow function
The syntax of the arrow function is similar to the syntax of a function expression, except that it does not have a name.
() => { ... } // no parameter
param1 => { ... } // one parameter (param1, param2) => { ... } // multiple parameters The above syntax shows a function with no parameters, a function with one parameter, and a function with multiple parameters.
