@putout/plugin-simplify-ternary v7.0.0

@putout/plugin-simplify-ternary

The ternary operator takes three operands: a condition followed by a question mark (?), then an expression to execute if the condition is truthy followed by a colon (:), and finally the expression to execute if the condition is falsy. This operator is frequently used as an alternative to an if...else statement.

(c) MDN

🐊Putout plugin adds ability to simplify ternary to logical expression when first and second operands are the same.

❌ Example of incorrect code

module.exports = fs.copyFileSync ? fs.copyFileSync : copyFileSync;

x = y ? y : z;
x = y ? z : y;
x = y ? z : false;

m = is ? a && b : a && c;

✅ Example of correct code

module.exports = fs.copyFileSync || copyFileSync;

x = y || z;
x = y && z;

m = a && is ? b : c;

spread

No need to use ternary when you can use logical expression (&&) it behaves in the same way, but simpler.
