function upsert(array, item) { // (1)
  const i = array.findIndex(_item => _item.id === item.id);
  if (i > -1) array[i] = item; // (2)
  else array.push(item);
}

const array = [
  {id: 0, name: 'Apple', description: 'fruit'},
  {id: 1, name: 'Banana', description: 'fruit'},
  {id: 2, name: 'Tomato', description: 'vegetable'}
];

upsert(array, {id: 2, name: 'Tomato', description: 'fruit'})
console.log(array);
/* =>
[
  {id: 0, name: 'Apple', description: 'fruit'},
  {id: 1, name: 'Banana', description: 'fruit'},
  {id: 2, name: 'Tomato', description: 'fruit'}
]
*/

upsert(array, {id: 3, name: 'Cucumber', description: 'vegetable'})
console.log(array);
/* =>
[
  {id: 0, name: 'Apple', description: 'fruit'},
  {id: 1, name: 'Banana', description: 'fruit'},
