I notice that types in visual studio code such as string and String as well as number and Number exist in capitalized and lowercase form. I also noticed that when calling native javascript methods and properties the difference matters.

What is the point of this and which should I be using by default?

Thanks! That does answer my question--asked in a very different way. – N-ate Aug 23 '18 at 19:08
