Arrows Functions vs. Function IIFEs

When creating an IIFE, use a regular function, NOT an arrow function.

With a fat arrow, this is bound to the this of the surrounding code (in this case Window or Global).

(() => {
  'use strict';
  
  console.log('fat arrow', this)
})();

(function(){
  'use strict';

  console.log('function', this)
})();
