====== Javascript ======

===== Class example in node.js =====

<code javascript>
/**
 * backend.js - helper functions to connect to the backend
 */

const axios = require('axios');

// object constructor
function Backend () {

  this.property = 5;
  console.log('this is the constructor');
}

// object implementation
Backend.prototype = {
  doSomething : function() {
    console.log('hello from backend', this );
  }
}

// static method
Backend.otherMethod = function() {
  console.log('this is my static method');
}

module.exports = Backend;
</code>


For use it is as easy as: 

<code javascript>
const Backend = require('./backend');

let b1 = new Backend();

b1.doSomething();
Backend.otherMethod();
