Differences between Map and Object

Comment

Key types: A Map's key can be of any data type, but an Object's key can only be a String or a Symbol.

Accidental keys: A Map has no default keys and can only contain the keys you explicitly put into it,
but an Object prototype has default keys that could clash with your keys.

Size: You can quickly get the number of items in a Map using its size property,
but you have to count manually in an Object.

Performance: It is much easier to remove or add key: value pairs in a Map than in an Object.
