I'm trying to follow a proper code style using ES6 but I'm having some trouble understanding when should I use "=>". Until now I'm using arrows for callbacks, where before I would write an anonymous function.

But my question is: Should I use arrows also when declaring a function?

function myFunc(param) { ... }

Should be changed to:

myFunc: (param) => {...}

(?)

Thanks for reading, I hope this question helps also others struggling with using ES6 in their code.

depends on whether you want to encapsulate `this` from where it was declared – Meirion Hughes Nov 05 '16 at 09:53
@NinaScholz: No reason you can't use recursion in arrow functions. – T.J. Crowder Nov 05 '16 at 10:01
