It looks like it's just assigning the scope variable
mtotrue(alsofalsein them=!1case.It's minified code and
m=!0is fewer characters thanm=true.Well I hate that. Is there a reason
m=1wouldn't be the same thing asm=!0?Types are dynamic so I think the ! operator converts int to bool in JS
1 is truthy, but not the exact same thing as true, and the distinction can be important.
1 != true, 1 is an int, true is a boolean
