Learn how to merge two JavaScript objects and create a new object that combines their properties.
Introduced in ES6 in 2015, the spread operator is a powerful way to merge two simple objects into one:
const object1 = {
name: 'Flavio'
}
const object2 = {
age: 35
}
const object3 = {...object1, ...object2 }
If both objects contain a property with the same name, the second object’s property overwrites the first.
However, for more complex merge operations, the best solution is to use Lodash, a popular JavaScript utility library. Lodash provides a merge()
method that performs a deep merge, recursively merging object properties and arrays.
For detailed documentation on the merge()
method, you can visit the official Lodash website.
