This document provides a comprehensive overview of the Reflection API, a powerful tool for examining the internal state of your JavaScript applications.
It allows you to inspect objects, functions, and even entire applications at runtime.
The Reflection API is designed to provide a clear and concise view of the JavaScript engine's internals. It's crucial for debugging, performance analysis, and understanding the behavior of your code.
Key Features:
- Object Inspection: Inspect individual object properties and values.
- Function Inspection: Examine function definitions, arguments, and return values.
- Application Analysis: View the call stack and code flow for a complete understanding of execution.
- Dynamic Analysis: Analyze changes in the state of the application in real-time.
This example demonstrates a simple reflection operation - examining the `console.log` function's arguments.
The reflection API enables this type of static analysis, making it easier to identify issues and optimize performance.
For advanced use cases, consider exploring its integration with other tools for debugging and profiling.
