# Explicit Returns

In TypeScript, explicitly type return values for public functions. Avoid returning undefined implicitly—return null explicitly or use void functions. In arrow functions, be intentional about implicit returns (=> value) vs. explicit (=> { return value; }). Explicit returns make intent clear and catch accidental returns.
