JavaScript Hoisting Explained: Variables, Functions, and TDZ

🚀 JavaScript Concepts Series – Day 5 / 30 📌 Hoisting in JavaScript 👀 Let’s Revise the Basics 🧐 Understanding Hoisting in JavaScript helps you know how variables and functions behave before execution. Hoisting means JavaScript moves declarations to the top of their scope during the memory creation phase. 🔹 var Hoisting Declared variables are hoisted Initialized with undefined Can be accessed before declaration (but value will be undefined) 🔹 let & const Hoisting Also hoisted But not initialized Stay in Temporal Dead Zone (TDZ) until declared Accessing before declaration → ReferenceError 🔹 Function Hoisting Function declarations are fully hoisted Can be called before declaration Function expressions are not hoisted like functions 💡 Key Insight var → Hoisted with undefined let & const → Hoisted but in TDZ Functions → Fully hoisted (only declarations) Understanding hoisting helps you avoid unexpected bugs and write predictable code execution flow.
