Avoid-Using-Var

Sourcery rule id: avoid-using-var

Description

Use const or let instead of var.

Match

var a = 1

Explanation

const is preferred as it ensures you cannot reassign references (which can lead to buggy and confusing code). let may be used if you need to reassign references - it's preferred to var because it is block- rather than function-scoped.
