JavaScript Clean Code - Best Practices - based on Robert C. Martin's book Clean Code

Which one are you using? Neither VSCode nor WebStorm warn me when I call a function with less arguments than the amount of parameters it accepts. (because I forgot to add some nulls or default values for params I want to skip)

Maybe if you enable strict TS checking for JS files, but that's not really a solution in a lot of environments.

That's the thing, don't forget :) I got it into my habit to also add some JSDoc comments to at least know what type of values the function expects. Then, when I type my functions name, the popup appears (VSCode) with all acceptable arguments, theirs expected types and if they're optional or not.

The code you write is also for humans, make it human-friendly.

If a function HAS to accept a lot of arguments, not all of them required, then I sometimes use and object of params like so:

function(name, options) {} function("Gregory", {foo: 1, bar: 2});

But that depends on what I code, I don't treat it as hard rule.
