Simple LRU Cache in TypeScript

lru-cache.ts

class LruCache<T> {

  private values: Map<string, T> = new Map<string, T>();
  private maxEntries: number = 20;

  public get(key: string): T {
    const hasKey = this.values.has(key);
    let entry: T;
    if (hasKey) {
      // peek the entry, re-insert for LRU strategy
      entry = this.values.get(key);
      this.values.delete(key);
      this.values.set(key, entry);
    }

    return entry;
  }

  public put(key: string, value: T) {

    if (this.values.size >= this.maxEntries) {
      // least-recently used cache eviction strategy
      const keyToDelete = this.values.keys().next().value;

      this.values.delete(keyToDelete);
    }

    this.values.set(key, value);
  }

}

The article is a rant that proves nothing.
TS and JS both have private class properties.
OOP is way better for entity driven approach.

@sagarpanchal
could you expand more?
I don't know any good cases, where OOP is better.
And I haven't met an entity driven approach in any of the popular frontend frameworks (react, nextjs).
Are you maybe talking about gamedev and not frontend?
