OOP is a way of structuring code around objects that:
- represent things (users, cars, games, etc.)
- bundle data (properties) and behavior (methods) together
In JavaScript, since ECMAScript 2015 (ES6), this is may be done with classes.
What is inheritance?
Inheritance means one class can reuse and extend another class.
The new class inherits properties and methods from the old one.
What is a method?
A method is just a function that belongs to a class (or an object).
It’s something the object can do.
Pantone Color of the Year 2026
For 2026, Pantone has selected PANTONE 11-4201 Cloud Dancer, a soft, airy white. The colour is described as calm, reflective, and quietly uplifting — a reset button in a noisy world. Cloud Dancer suggests simplicity, clarity, and the idea of a fresh creative starting point.

Moving to Mastodon
Been trying out the social network (or rather network of social networks) Mastodon this weekend. Primarily this has been to replace Twitter.
