ES6 Classes Syntax Example
class Parent {
constructor() { } // Custom constructor (optional.) If one is not provided, the example here is used a default constructor.
// Methods
method() { } // Simple instance methods
static staticMethod() { } // Static methods that can be called on the constructor, e.g. A.staticMethod.
// Getter/setter methods - similar to ES5 equivalents.
get prop() { return this.x; }
set prop(x) { this.x = x; }
