bar_prop ) Pros and cons of Object.create Pro(s) prototype = proto var inst = new bar ( ) Ĭonsole.

Let's create an object o from function F with its own properties a and b: let F = function ( ) var proto = Object.

It is, for example, fairly trivial to build a classic model on top of a prototypal model. While this confusion is often considered to be one of JavaScript's weaknesses, the prototypal inheritance model itself is, in fact, more powerful than the classic model. Nearly all objects in JavaScript are instances of Object which sits just below null on the top of a prototype chain. By definition, null has no prototype, and acts as the final link in this prototype chain. That prototype object has a prototype of its own, and so on until an object is reached with null as its prototype. Each object has a private property which holds a link to another object called its prototype.

When it comes to inheritance, JavaScript only has one construct: objects. JavaScript is a bit confusing for developers experienced in class-based languages (like Java or C++), as it is dynamic and does not provide a class implementation per se (the class keyword is introduced in ES2015, but is syntactical sugar, JavaScript remains prototype-based).
