defineProperty method
const person = { name: 'Owen' }; Object.defineProperty(person, 'age', { value: 21 }); console.log(person); console.log(Object.keys(person));
With the defineProperty method, we can add new properties to an object, or modify existing ones. When we add a property to an object using the defineProperty method, they are by default not enumerable. The Object.keys method returns all enumerable property names from an object, in this case only "name".
Properties added using the defineProperty method are immutable by default. You can override this behavior using the writable, configurable and enumerable properties. This way, the defineProperty method gives you a lot more control over the properties you're adding to an object.
