I have an object

let obj = {
  a : [
    {
      name : 'op'
    }]
};

I want to clone it. I used JSON.parse(JSON.stringify(obj)). But this does not scale well for huge data when used again and again. Is there any other way to shallow copy the object?

@Lars that would depend if the OP wants to deep clone or not. The last sentence suggests otherwise – Tom Fenech Jul 21 '17 at 09:03
Oh.. thats odd.. OP is doing `JSON.parse(JSON.stringify()` which suggests deep clone..Which are you asking? – Suraj Rao Jul 21 '17 at 09:05
