## Use Explicit Conditional Rendering
Use explicit ternary operators (`? :`) instead of `&&` for conditional rendering when the condition can be `0`, `NaN`, or other falsy values that render.
**Incorrect (renders "0" when count is 0):**
```tsx
function Badge({ count }: { count: number }) {
return (
<div>
{count && <span className="badge">{count}</span>}
</div>
)
}
// When count = 0, renders: <div>0</div>
// When count = 5, renders: <div><span class="badge">5</span></div>
```
**Correct (renders nothing when count is 0):**
```tsx
function Badge({ count }: { count: number }) {
return (
<div>
{count > 0 ? <span className="badge">{count}</span> : null}
</div>
)
}
// When count = 0, renders: <div></div>
// When count = 5, renders: <div><span class="badge">5</span></div>
```
