Introduction and Lesson Overview

Welcome to your next JavaScript session! We'll be discussing Classes, which are essential blueprints for creating objects. We'll cover class syntax, constructors, methods, and class inheritance. Are you ready to explore JavaScript Classes? Let's unravel the magic!

Understanding the Concept of Classes

In JavaScript, Classes serve as blueprints for creating objects. Imagine building houses; each house shares a similar structure — doors, windows, a roof, rooms — but the details may vary, such as the number of rooms or doors. Similarly, each object of a class will have a consistent structure, but the details may differ.

Here, House is a Class. An object of this Class would be an individual house.

Exploring the Class Constructor

When creating an object from a class, the new keyword calls the constructor inside that class, initiating a new object called an instance of the class.

We've created a myCar object of the Car Class with carname set as 'Toyota'. The object is an instance of the Car Class.
