There are much nicer patterns available to program in an Object Oriented (or rather JavaScript) style. In the following gist I demonstrate (using a simple container library) private, protected and public members (including methods and properties) along with setting each object up for correct prototypal inheritance. https://gist.github.com/nomad-software/78be4f1dd429325c5ebede48237f5120 https://gist.github.com/nomad-software/78be4f1dd429325c5ebed...
