My other two favorite features are the ??= operator, which only assigns if the left-hand side is nullish (there are also ||= and &&=), and the default value during array/object destructuring, which allows you to, for example, declare and assign optional parameters in a single line:
const { param1 = value1, param2 = value2 } = options
