Why do I get SyntaxError: Unexpected token')' when I use Safari but when I use Chrome it works fine?

I'm not sure what part of the code (Exactly the same as video..from what I can tell)Safari doesn't like, but does this mean that it isn't best practise to use this kind of syntax as users may be using safari? If this is the case what is the best way to do the same job? Or am I totally off here and it is something entirely different Thank you in advance :-)

Not sure what exactly what piece of code you're referring to since you didn't post any, but if you're curious about browser support for specific es2015 features, here's a site every JS dev should bookmark: https://kangax.github.io/compat-table/es6/ It shows browser support and will let you know if you need a transpiler like babel to bring your JS code down to something that every browser can support.

Hope that help!
