Let's learn ES6! Master new JavaScript features faster and easier

Destructuring is a way for us to extract data from arrays and objects without having to manually create variables. Take this object for example.

let person = {
    name: "Ryan",
    age: 30,
    location: "Toronto"
};


An example of the destructuring syntax would be this.

let { age : personAge } = person;
console.log(personAge);


In the destructuring expression the left-hand value is the key from the object, and the right is the new variable we would like to create. Don't want to create a new variable? We can use a special shorthand to just create a new variable called `age`.
