+## 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>
+```
