    I’ve worked on projects with 10 000+ lines of typescript and maybe 3 classes total.

        Of course, but OOP is typically about putting methods on classes, inheritance of behaviour etc.

        JS Objects aren’t typically used that way, they tend to be used as pure data containers. At least, that’s how we mostly use them.

        Occasionally, we’ll use objects to simplify passing multiple arguments including arrow functions, but I’d say that doesn’t really count unless the arrow function mutates the object it’s a part of.

          You’re referring to one subtype of OOP. That may be what most people mean when they say OOP, but that doesn’t make it correct. Object-oriented programming is programming with objects, which does not require inheritance or classes.

          And maybe you have some functions that interact with them but don’t keep them super public so they’re only used by specific modules/store/redux thingy?
