What is the difference between Function declaration & arrow function?

The main difference is that a function declaration is bound to its execution context while an arrow function is bound to its lexical scope (this & arguments). E.g. the difference is how this is controlled and it is especially important in react components as we don’t need to bind context anymore when passing down event handlers for instance.
