Nice! I wasn't aware of that!
Then we could potentially override that method to get [object Object] when converting it to JSON.
[object Object]
pony.toJSON = function () { return this.toString() } JSON.stringify(pony) // '[object Object]'
That sounds... useful? 🙈 But yeah, it's a feature that I as well only discovered after many years of JS experience and since have never used in production. It's pretty cool though.
Oh, and also the result would in fact be "[object Object]". The quotes are part of the serialized result (since it needs to be valid JSON).
"[object Object]"
That sounds... useful? 🙈
I mean, the specification is that the object gets converted to a string. About the actual content of the string, the OP said nothing 😝
