StructuredClone is actually a web API (like setTimeout, etc), not part of JS. If the object contains methods, structuredClone will throw an exception, the JSON hack will strip them for the new object without erroring,
Great video! IE11 was killed off anyway so this is basically full support. However, it was only added to Node 17 so it won't work if you're on an older version of Node.
What version of NodeJS does it support? Also what about an Instance object? not JSON object but an object yielded by `new Class()`, and does it also clone the object methods?
Pretty good support ?! I would say no. Check the table for browser compatibility, it kinda sucks. I think the hack method is the best, 2nd option you can use a 3rd party lib. But who am I ? Just a petty sr developer with many years of experience that knows: compatibility is a "beach" and frugality is very important.
Javascript is just a weird language, I feel like it try to act like a programming language but we are obligated to use it since the browser work with js .

Really? That's suck
it also throws an error on proxy objects
Great and important topic on JavaScript James. Master JS is so important 🙂

Luckily, Node 18 is LTS for a year now
@@dinoscheidt I get it, but that doesn't mean everyone's company does. There's plenty of reasons for people to be using older versions.
@@dinoscheidt but AFAIK, node version higher than 16 is breaking react and react native.
Thank you so much. This is problem that I faced last week, made me worth following you :p
Thanks for sharing the info James
Thanks for this valuable code guide. 👍
Always learning interesting and useful features. I didn’t know that spread operator was not going deep. Thanks 🙏
Love it! Finally a real native way to do a deep copy! 👍
Thank You!! ❤❤
thanks James🤞

Thank you so much for this, James! You really helped a lot.
So glad to hear that!
Another helpful topic, great video!
Amazing video. So much good APIs ☺️
What is your theme?
Great info. Thank you.
Thank you 😊
If object has function it copy that also?
I recommend using rust jk
Very good thx a lot

hey James, which theme are you using?
Still need to depend upon third party libraries, as structured clones do not work in case of function
It would be cool if they extended the spread operator with an argument such as {….foo, 2} meaning copy two levels deep 🤔
Shoot I use spread operator all of my codes! Does this work with array of object too??
Spread operator doesn’t do nested copies
Take care of yourself

"Not IE11, that's a separate conversation".... When the E11 conversation going ot happen? ( O _ O )
No one uses that anymore. Microsoft dropped support for it some time ago. It's a waste of time to even discuss it.
Don't use if your users have older chrome versions or other browsers

Goodbye lodash
Nope still need it, this won’t work for for every case, if it has a class, function or symbol
This is absurd to have to jump through so many hoops just to copy an object. It should absolutely be a native JS function.
