Thanks for sharing! Very helpful.

Happy to hear you enjoyed it 🙏

Hey Chris Bongers, I did not understand the dynamic name destructuring.

It basically is a way to use variables as the key selector.

In the example we might get getProperty from a function (like a select list)

So we can't do { name } as we don't know if it's name or age for instance. This way you can use a dynamic name (variable) to be the destructure selector.

Hope that makes a some sense?

Okay Chris Bongers. It's similar to Destructuring with a different name. We are storing the name with a different variable and using that variable to get another variable which will be used to get the value "Chris".

It took longer to understand. But, I hope my explanation makes sense :)

Thanx learned so much 💖.

This is great, so happy to hear that 💖

Glad you enjoyed it 🙏

I really enjoyed the 'PLAY THIS ARTICLE' function but what would make it even better if it had a fixed position so I could pause without scrolling back to the top (and having to rush to find my place when I press play.) Very helpful article.

That's actually a hashnode feature, will tag Syed Fazle Rahman for reference. 💖

Thanks for tagging, Chris.

That's a great suggestion, Isabel Nava. We're already working on an upgrade to the listen feature. It'll be shipped soon.

Glad to hear you like the article 💖
