Problem of scoping in loops

[d-p-dev]

In an each loop, the scoping of variables is not really handled. If a variable is declared in one iteration of the loop, it's value is kept in the following iterations

In the following example, the variable newVariable will be set to test from the beginning until the end of the loop iteration

- var array = [1,2,3,4]
each value, index in array
  if index === 0
    - var newVariable = 'test'

Is this a known issue?

hi @dylan-provost
not exactly known, but probably a limitation.

most variables are scoped "globalish" (in the mixin scope) - much similar to how javascript handles them. (unless you use let/const of course)
