How to use Object.observe:

Notice this is in the 'draft' state of ES7,  but you can try it out in Chrome, if you enable 'Enable experiment Javascirpt' in  'Chorme:flag'

var person = {
   name: "John"   
};

Object.observe(person, p => console.log(p));

 

So when you update the person object, in the console will log out:

/*
name: "name"
object: Object
oldValue: "john"
type: "update"
*/

 

Also if the prop is immutable, or delete.. it will log out different 'type'.
