JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is a popular data format used for transmitting and storing data. Oftentimes, you may need to merge two or more JSON objects together to combine their data. In this blog post, we will explore different methods for merging JSON objects in JavaScript.

Method 1: Using the Object.assign() Method

The Object.assign() method is a built-in JavaScript method that allows you to merge multiple objects into a new object. To merge JSON objects using this method, you can follow these steps:

1. Create an empty target object that will hold the merged JSON data.
2. Use the Object.assign() method to merge the JSON objects by passing in the target object as the first argument, followed by the JSON objects you want to merge.

let target = {};
let obj1 = { name: "John", age: 30 };
let obj2 = { city: "New York", country: "USA" };

let mergedObj = Object.assign(target, obj1, obj2);

console.log(mergedObj);
// Output: { name: "John", age: 30, city: "New York", country: "USA" }

Method 2: Using the Spread Operator

Another way to merge JSON objects is by using the spread operator (...). This operator allows you to expand an iterable object (like an array or an object) into another object. To merge JSON objects using the spread operator, you can follow these steps:

1. Create a new object and use the spread operator to expand the JSON objects you want to merge.

let obj1 = { name: "John", age: 30 };
let obj2 = { city: "New York", country: "USA" };

let mergedObj = { ...obj1, ...obj2 };

console.log(mergedObj);
// Output: { name: "John", age: 30, city: "New York", country: "USA" }

Both the Object.assign() method and the spread operator provide efficient ways to merge JSON objects in JavaScript. Choose the method that suits your coding style and requirements.
