 On the front-end, we have access to conditional tags, which allows us to
 check which page is being requested quite declarative, and elegant.

 ```if ( is_page( 'about' ) ) { /* do something */ } ```
 ```if ( is_post_type_archive( 'people' ) ) { /* do something else */ } ```

 In wp-admin, we're not so well equipped. You have access to `$hook_suffix`
 and get_current_screen(), both of which would require writing some more,
 at times tricky to craft imperative conditionals.
