Method 1: Using push() method

If you’re looking for a simple and beginner-friendly solution, JavaScript’s push() method is perfect because it allows you to add elements without writing long lines of code. 

Apply the method to the array variable where you want to add the object, and then include the object variable within the method.

Method 2: Using concat() (Immutable)

If you prefer not to use Method 1, where I demonstrated how to add an object to an array using the push() method in JavaScript, you can instead use the concat() method.

The concat() the method works similarly to push(), but you need to use it differently.

Method 3: Using the Spread Operator …

If you prefer modern JavaScript features, you can use the spread operator to add an object to an array.

Using the spread operator helps keep your code clean, simple, and easy to understand.

The best part is that you only need a few lines of code. Here’s an example of how you can use it in your code.

Method 4: Using splice()

If you need to add an object at a specific index, like the beginning of the array, the splice() method is an excellent choice.

This method is perfect when working with multiple objects in an array and needing to insert an object at a specific position.

Method 5: Using unshift() (Add to the Beginning)

The unshift() method is perfect when you need to add a new object at the beginning of the array.

The unshift() method works similarly to the push() method, but instead of adding the object at the end of the array, it inserts it at the beginning.

Conclusion

Adding an object to an array in JavaScript is simple if you’re familiar with the right methods. You can use push(), concat(), splice(), unshift(), or the spread operator to achieve this.
