Added object literal section

[jaredgalanis]

As requested by #1751 @locks. Heads up @rtablada.

👍 Good work, @jaredgalanis. Please review the changes I suggested and let's continue from there.

[yawboakye]

Not sure we need Now to begin the sentence.

Also, see if you can provide example of how it's done currently:

function someFunc(thing1, thing2) {
  return {
    thing1: thing1,
    thing2: thing2
  };
}

then move on to describe how the new syntax makes it simpler. Just so the learner doesn't have to conjure things up in their mind. Also remind them that it doesn't apply in cases where object key isn't equal to value. And that both old and new style can be mixed.

What do you think of "ES6 introduced a new syntax for object literals ..." as the opening line. I'm not too comfortable with some functionality was added. If that's just me feel free to ignore this comment.

[yawboakye]

@jaredgalanis Good work! I think there's only a few more changes for your consideration and we're good to go.

[yawboakye]

Nice! @jaredgalanis what do you think about saying can be written, in ES6, as:? I believe the learner wouldn't have lost the context (the new property initializer syntax) by now and so we don't have to remind them.

[yawboakye]

I think we can expand this a little further. ES6's initializer syntax works if and only if the property name is the same as the variable holding the value to be assigned to it. For example, while this works

let firstName = 'Ember';
let lastName = 'Tomster';

let tomster = {
  firstName,
  lastName
}

this won't

let nombre = 'Ember';
let apellido = 'Tomster';

let tomster = {
  firstName,
  lastName
}

because the variables holding the values are different than the object's properties.

@jaredgalanis Another thing but I don't know how hard that will be. Is it possible to replace someObject, thing1, thing2, someFunc with alternatives that are almost real? For example,
replace someObject with Document, and the properties and functions with author, publisher, publicatoinDate, abstract(), etc?

[jaredgalanis]

Thanks @yawboakye. I tried revising things in the way you suggested. Note that I also took out the final section about computed property names. My thinking is that subject is too far down in the weeds for what is meant to be covered here. Especially since it's only new to ES6 in the sense that they can be used with object literals (vs instances).

LGTM. @locks?
