object destructuring with default value javascript code example

Example 1: destructuring assignment

Destructuring assignment is special syntax introduced in ES6, 
for neatly assigning values taken directly from an object.

const user = { name: 'John Doe', age: 34 };

const { name, age } = user;
// name = 'John Doe', age = 34

const { dogName = 'snickers' } = { dogName: null }

const { dogName = 'snickers' } = { dogName: false }
console.log(dogName) // what will it be? false!

const { dogName = 'snickers' } = { dogName: 0 }
console.log(dogName) // what will it be? 0!
