+Classes in JavaScript are both powerful and weird. While they allow us to create named objects with similarly purposed methods and properties, they're often misunderstood because of nuanced in the language itself.
+
+Let's look at:
+
+- How to create an object
+- 
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+Let's look at a basic JavaScript object and see what an analogous class might look like:
+
+```javascript
+class User {
+    name = "Corbin",
+    username = "crutchcorn",
+    sayCatchphrase() {
+        console.log("It depends");
+    }
+}
+```
+
+```javascript
+class User {
+    constructor() {
+        this.name = "Corbin",
+        this.username = "crutchcorn",
+        this.sayCatchphrase = function() {
+            console.log("It depends");
+        }
+    }
+}
+```
+
+```javascript
+const userObject = {
+    name: "Corbin",
+    username: "crutchcorn",
+    sayCatchphrase: function() {
+        console.log("It depends");
+    }
+}
+```
+
+```javascript
+function User() {
+    return {
+        name: "Corbin",
+        username: "crutchcorn",
+        sayCatchphrase: function() {
+            console.log("It depends");
+        }
+    }
+}
+
+new User();
+```
+
+But it's more helpful to think of `User` as an analogous for `constructor`:
+
+```javascript
+function User() {
+    this.name = "Corbin";
+    this.username = "crutchcorn";
+    this.sayCatchphrase = function() {
+   		console.log("It depends");
+	}
+}
+```
+
+## Prototype Manipulation
+
+Knowing this:
+
+```javascript
+function User() {
+    this.name = "Corbin";
+    this.username = "crutchcorn";
+}
+
+User.prototype.sayCatchphrase = function() {
+   console.log("It depends");
+}
+```
+
+
+
+## Class Extension
+
+```javascript
+function Person() {
+}
+
+Person.prototype.test = "1"
+
+
+function Pix() {
+}
+
+Pix.prototype = Object.create(Person.prototype)
+Pix.prototype.other = "2"
+
+(new Pix()).test // 1
+(new Pix()).other // 2
+
+(new Person()).test // 1
+(new Person()).other // undefined
+```
+
+
+
+
+
+# Static Methods
+
+```javascript
+class User {
+    name = "Corbin",
+    username = "crutchcorn",
+    static sayCatchphrase() {
+        console.log("It depends");
+    }
+}
+```
+
+```javascript
+function User() {
+    this.name = "Corbin",
+    this.username = "crutchcorn",
+}
+
+User.sayCatchphrase() {
+    console.log("It depends");
+}
+```
