Hacking the JavaScript using Proxies and Reflection || Hacking JS with Proxy || Erick Wendel

The Proxy object enables you to create a proxy for another object, which can intercept and redefine fundamental operations for that object. If you have watched my video about the JavaScript decorators proposal you'll find this very alike. Decorators and the Proxy object have the same goal. They help us intercept and/or override behaviors in Functions, classes, or objects. We're gonna build an application to inspect how long a function takes to finish and print it out on the screen by just decorating our function with an extension We'll also use metaprogramming practices by using the JavaScript Reflect object to retrieve class names, functions, and much more.
