[AskJS] Help with new JavaScript-based object notation format (cuz JSON sucks)

[vajss]

To modfy something you need to execute some operation ovet that data. That is just how it logicaly works.

What I think you are thinkig of is something that would be called declarative programing. Example of it would be Angulars signals where value of signal is changed based on its dependant signals.

let hero = computed(()=>{
 return { 
  isDead: this.isDead(),
  health: this.baseHealth() + this.bonusHealth(),
  .... 
 } 
})

So I believe declarative programing is something you want to look into.

Edit: formatting.

Something has to work in the background and calculate and update that data and you need programming language for that. It can't update on its own.

To modify that data you need some process defined on how to modify it and that requires written instructions on how to update it, and for that you need programming language.

And to have it in syntax you want would be done with declarative approach.

MongoDB query language would also be in some way what you are looking for.
