Let's go through some of the new features that we're getting from this version
String.prototype.replaceAll()The current 'String.prototype.replace()' method only replaces the first occurrence, unless a regular expression with a global modifier is provided.
With the new 'String.prototype.replaceAll()' method, we can finally omit the regex
Private MethodsWhen a method name starts with '#', we declare them private.
Private methods can only be accessed from within the class they're defined
Private AccessorsSimilar to Private Methods, accessor functions can be made private by prepending # to the function name as well
Promise.any()You probably already know how to use 'Promise.all()' to await all Promises from a list to resolve.
With Promise.any(), we can await a list of Promises, but resolve as soon as one of the Promises in the list resolves
Logical Assignment Operator (&&)The new Logical Assignment Operator combines logical operations (&& / || / ??) with assignments.
Let's take a look below, using &&
Logical Assignment Operator (||)Similarly, we can use the new Logical Assignment Operator with ||
Logical Assignment Operator (??)Finally, we can use it in combination with the Nullish Coalescing Operator
There are two additional new features, 'WeakRef' and 'Finalizers', which are a bit too complex to explain here.
But I highly recommend looking them up!
