JavaScript on the Go: Objects

In JavaScript, (almost) everything is an object, but they’re not the same as objects in other programming languages. If you’re confused about how to get started with objects in JavaScript, this course was designed for you. Instructor Guil Hernandez gives you an overview of this foundational, often misunderstood coding concept and shows you how to make JavaScript objects work for you.

Find out why you’re not the only developer who’s confused about the way JavaScript approaches objects, exploring the basics of this slightly weird but critical structure at the heart of object-oriented programming. Gather insights on creating new object instances, using object literal syntax, defining objects with a constructor function, merging two or more objects, iterating over objects, defining objects with class- or prototype-based inheritance models, and more. By the end of this course, you’ll be ready to wield your new coding skills and discover opportunities to continue learning.
