'Let' and 'const' are block-scope variable declarations that can replace 'var' declarations in many cases.
const declares blocked-scoped variables that cannot be re-assigned. let declares block-scoped variables that can be changed. They are available since ES6 and are preferred over function-scope, modifiable var declarations, because they make it easier to reason about the code.
When there are several variables declared in a statement, this refactoring does not change the declaration to prevent formatting breakages and linter issues.
var declarations are only changed if they are used within block-scope, and only variables that are not modified are marked as const.
