Hello, everyone π. I am a newcomer when it comes to JavaScript. I come from an OOP background (C# and Java). I've recently learned that ES6 has a class keyword that preforms similarly (but not exactly) to common OOP languages. Normally I would be inclined to use this feature in my projects; however, it came to my attention that the usage of class in JavaScript seems to be heavily discussed (mostly in a negative light). My questions to this community are:
- Should it be used often, sparingly, or be outright avoided?
- What are its advantages and disadvantages?
- Are there specific cases where the usage of
classexcels?
Please share your thoughts.
Good advice, but I would like to expand outside of my comfort zone to learn different styles of programming.
Absolutely agree with you there.
Thank you! β€οΈ
