9,626 PointsHi, wanted to ask a theory question without any code about Classes and inheritance in ES6?
Historically, developers used constructor functions to mimic an object-oriented design pattern in JavaScript Classes in JavaScript (introduced with ES6) do not actually offer additional functionality, and are often described as providing "syntactical sugar" over prototypes and inheritance in that they offer a cleaner and more elegant syntax Because other programming languages use classes, the class syntax in JavaScript makes it more straightforward for developers to move between languages So that means that when we use classes we don't really need prototypes and inheritance that we used to type with the old JAvaScript? As Classes already have that inheritance? Thanks
