ES6 is a significant update to the JavaScript language that was released in 2015. It introduces several new features and syntax improvements that make JavaScript code more concise and easier to read.

// Arrow function example
const multiply = (x, y) => {
return x * y;
};
const result = multiply(2, 3);
console.log(result);
// Template literals example
const name = 'John';
const age = 30;
console.log(`Hello, my name is ${name} and I'm ${age} years old.`);

class Person {
constructor(name, age) {
this.name = name;
this.age = age;
}
sayHello() {
console.log(`Hello, my name is ${this.name} and I'm ${this
