# Create An Object With No Properties
|
||||
|
||||
When you call `new Object` or even just instantiate an object with `{}`, you
|
||||
are creating an object that uses the `Object` prototype. This means it
|
||||
inherits from `Object.prototype`.
|
||||
|
||||
You can deliberately create an object with no properties by making sure that
|
||||
it does not inherit `Object.prototype`.
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
> const propertylessObject = Object.create(null);
|
||||
{}
|
||||
|
||||
> propertylessObject.__proto__
|
||||
undefined
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Unlike most objects that we encounter as we write JavaScript, this object we
|
||||
created with `Object.create(null)` has no properties including no
|
||||
`__proto__`.
|
||||
|
||||
See
|
||||
[Object.create](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Object/create)
|
||||
and
|
||||
[Object.prototype](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Object/prototype)
|
||||
for more details.
