Is this a good way to clone an object in ES6?

EDIT: When this answer was posted, {...obj} syntax was not available in most browsers. Nowadays, you should be fine using it (unless you need to support IE 11).

Use Object.assign.

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Object/assign

var obj = { a: 1 };
var copy = Object.assign({}, obj);
console.log(copy); // { a: 1 }

However, this won't make a deep clone. There is no native way of deep cloning as of yet.

EDIT: As @Mike 'Pomax' Kamermans mentioned in the comments, you can deep clone simple objects (ie. no prototypes, functions or circular references) using JSON.parse(JSON.stringify(input))

This is good for shallow cloning. The object spread is a standard part of ECMAScript 2018.

For deep cloning you'll need a different solution.

const clone = {...original} to shallow clone

const newobj = {...original, prop: newOne} to immutably add another prop to the original and store as a new object.
