Stack and Heap: Memory in Javascript

  • Memory in JavaScript involves stack and heap memory allocation.
  • Primitive values are stored in the stack while objects are stored in the heap.

  • Shallow copy only copies references, not the actual object.
  • Deep copy duplicates the entire object structure including nested objects.
  • JSON.stringify() and JSON.parse() can be used for deep copying objects.
  • Serialization and deserialization are crucial for working with APIs, network requests, and data storage.
