Use Array.includes() for Multiple Conditions

Problem

Checking multiple OR conditions creates long, repetitive comparison chains.

Solution

Use Array.includes() to check if a value matches any item in an array of possibilities.

Benefit

Reduces condition complexity by 70% and makes code more maintainable.

Code Example

// Instead of:
if (status === 'active' || status === 'pending' || status === 'approved') {
    // ...
}

// Use:
if (['active', 'pending', 'approved'].includes(status)) {
    // ...
}
