I have this object

const data = {
  users: require("../model/users.json"), // initial value
  setUsers: (newUsers) => {
    this.users = newUsers
 } 
}

The setUsers arrow function doesn't assign newUsers to this.users, like it doesn't have access to this.users. But if I change setUsers to a regular function it works.

setUsers: function (newUsers) {
    this.users = newUsers
 }

Now it assigns newUsers to this.users. Why it does that, I thought arrow functions and regular functions are the same?
