I'm just learning about ES6 and one of the new things I found was template literals/strings. I'm used to doing this when I want to put strings and variables together:

var thing = "world";
console.log("Hello" + thing + "!");

With template literals, the new suggestion is to do this:

var thing = "world";
console.log(`Hello ${world}!`);

The second approach is cleaner, but is there an actual performance improvement, or is it just easier to type? Thank you!
