Can you still?

What's the output?

const person = {
  firstName: 'Lydia',
  lastName: 'Hallie',
  pet: {
    name: 'Mara',
    breed: 'Dutch Tulip Hound',
  },
  getFullName() {
    return `${this.firstName} ${this.lastName}`;
  },
};

console.log(person.pet?.name);
console.log(person.pet?.family?.name);
console.log(person.getFullName?.());
console.log(member.getLastName?.());

You missed this one before

With the optional chaining operator ?., we no longer have to explicitly check whether the deeper nested values are valid or not. If we're trying to access a property on an undefined or null value (nullish), the expression short-circuits and returns undefined.

person.pet?.name: person has a property named pet: person.pet is not nullish. It has a property called name, and returns Mara. person.pet?.family?.name: person has a property named pet: person.pet is not nullish. pet does not have a property called family, person.pet.family is nullish. The expression returns undefined. person.getFullName?.(): person has a property named getFullName: person.getFullName() is not nullish and can get invoked, which returns Lydia Hallie. member.getLastName?.(): variable member is non-existent therefore a ReferenceError gets thrown!
