Harness Inheritance in JavaScript using JSTraits

Inheritance in JavaScript maybe one of the most challenging functions in an Ajax based application.

Although developers are able to use inheritance in different applications, they will never be able to fully harness them since inheritance have a little bit of theoretical as well as practical considerations.

Although the practicality of inheritance will be achieved, the theoretical standpoint of the application makes the Ajax based application a little bit dangerous.

From another standpoint, inheritance can be easily used but the other standpoint will suggest that you can actually use inheritance as the means of exploiting the Ajax application.

But if there is one thing that the developers do not have, it is staying in status quo. That means they will never rest until they will be able to find a viable solution for inheritance.

This is a very important part of JavaScript since this will enable rapid development of application.

Enter Traits

A solution has been put forward by Joey Hurst. Called “Traits” this function hopefully addresses the problems of inheritance. This is the key function in his development platform JSTraits wherein its main purpose is to handle inheritance without any problem.

When this function is added to another function, developers will have the ability to reuse the function. In the end, this could become the precautionary measure for developers if they want to preserve the specific function.

Traits will hopefully harness inheritance while building Ajax based application by directly addressing the theoretical standpoint of inheritance.

By using another function from traits, inheritance will be kept to a minimum which means only the bare necessities will be available. The function could be easily transferred to other applications.

Advantages

The clear advantage of Traits of course, is in its ability to handle inheritance without any problem. Although it is not the ultimate answer, developers will have an extra tool so that they would have to deal with coding again as long as they have the function to be reused.

By addressing the theoretical standpoint of inheritance, developers will have an easier task of transferring functions and with a few tweaks in Traits, the function should now be compatible to the application.

Another advantage is the growing support of the main project, JSTraits. Developers have clearly recognized the additional feature provided by JSTraits which is why support for this project is continuously growing. Although adoption is not as massive compared to other frameworks, the feedback is generally impressive.

Disadvantages

On the other hand, Traits have to be implemented in all functions or none at all. Ideally, Traits could be implemented in a single function however; it will require developers additional tasks. Coding is a little bit difficult when using inheritance since this will require them to add Traits in each component.

Conclusion

Traits offer a remarkable solution for developers who wanted to observe inheritance. Although there are a few tweaks needed to fully harness the power of JStraits, it is already in the right track in impressing developers. Hopefully, it could be expanded and further enhanced in a few months.
