Behind the scenes

Defined non-iterable properties on prototypes

Object.defineProperties(Array.prototype, {
    property1: function() {
        // this refers to the current object instance of the prototype
        // if function keyword is used to create the function
        return this
    }
})

Defined types in the global scope

declare global {
    interface Array<T> {
        property1(): Array
    }
}
