Prefer:

if (condition) {
  return "something else";
}

return "a thing"

Instead of:

let myValue = "a thing";

if (isConditionTrue) {
  myValue = "something else";
}

return myValue;

Rationale

This improves maintainability because the reader never need ask/answer the question "under what circumstances might myValue be re-assigned to a different value?"
