The `new` Keyword in JavaScript

Short summary

JavaScript's `new` keyword automates object creation from constructor functions through four steps: creating an empty object, linking it to the constructor's prototype, executing the constructor with the correct `this` binding, and returning the populated object. Mastering these internal steps reveals how classes, React components, and broader OOP patterns work under the hood.
