Object.keys
I adore JavaScript objects. Love them. You're probably asking "well, why don't you marry them?" Trust me: if I could, I would. Arrays are nice and all but object keys provide another level of structure and information that is invaluable. For example, it's much faster search an object for a key than it is to search an array for value presence.
The way we've always iterated on an Object instance was always a for loops with a hasOwnProperty check which was ugly; Object.keys (not Object.prototype.keys) provides an array of Object properties!
var person = {
firstName: 'David',
lastName: 'Walsh',
// ...
};
Object.keys(person).forEach(function(trait) {
console.log('Person ', trait,': ', person[trait]);
});
If you work with JSON or simply raw JavaScript objects, and you haven't been using Object.keys, now is the time to ditch the old method for this elegant solution!
![fetch API]()
One of the worst kept secrets about AJAX on the web is that the underlying API for it, XMLHttpRequest, wasn't really made for what we've been using it for. We've done well to create elegant APIs around XHR but we know we can do better. Our effort to...
![Create a Sheen Logo Effect with CSS]()
I was inspired when I first saw Addy Osmani's original ShineTime blog post. The hover sheen effect is simple but awesome. When I started my blog redesign, I really wanted to use a sheen effect with my logo. Using two HTML elements and...
![Element Position Swapping Using MooTools 1.2]()
We all know that MooTools 1.2 can do some pretty awesome animations. What if we want to quickly make two element swap positions without a lot of fuss? Now you can by implementing a MooTools swap() method.

![MooTools Wall Plugin]()
One of the more impressive MooTools plugins to hit the Forge recently was The Wall by Marco Dell'Anna. The Wall creates an endless grid of elements which can be grabbed and dragged, fading in elements as they are encountered. Let me show...
Why don’t you use this:
for (let trait in person){console.log(trait)}@Franz,
for..in iterating over NON own properties.
Not very well supported http://caniuse.com/#feat=let
Obligatory https://babeljs.io/
Also would iterate over prototype properties.
The
for each...instatement is deprecated as the part of ECMA-357 (E4X) standard. E4X support has been removed, butfor each...inwill not be disabled and removed because of backward compatibility considerations. Consider usingfor...ofinstead. (Please refer to bug 791343.)Also: Use
const, not let. The loop creates a new context in each iteration, the loop variable therefore is constant unless your loop-code changes it.
