ES6 Arrow function syntax

Question

I've tried searching the web for an answer, or I may just be thinking about it too much. While watching some React videos I see devs using arrow functions two ways:

const name = () => {} -- here ending with curly braces and
const name = () => () -- here ending with parentheses

Is there a difference between the 2?

You use the second to return an object directly without a return statement — BlackMath, Oct 09 '21 at 00:14

The second will return the value of the expression inside the brackets after evaluation.

The first will require a return statement to return a value.
