What you'll learn

In this course, you'll learn not just about the various ways to create objects in JavaScript and their advantages, but also what's happening behind the scenes. You'll then learn about the surprising amount of power and configurability you may not be aware of with object properties. Finally, when you are finished with this course, you will have a clear and complete understanding of what prototypes are and how to recognize and use prototypal inheritance. With this deeper understanding, you will be able to create powerful and well structured applications that take advantage of the dynamic power of JavaScript.
