The new change array by copy methods (ES2023) will also work with tuples. So while you can't

Change Array by Copy

Stage 3 Change array by copy proposal offers methods like sortTo() that return a new array instead of mutating the original.

Note: there's a stage 3 proposal that introduces copy = arr.toSorted().

Change Array by Copy: Provides additional methods on Array.prototype and TypedArray.prototype to enable changes on the array by returning a new copy of it with the change.

The proposal is described here, with the other methods being:

Proposal, Polyfill

You're unlikely to see any new methods being added to JavaScript's Array that would modify an array in place like reverse() and sort() do. In fact some of the new methods that are being added are versions of reverse() and sort() (and splice()) that create copies rather than modifying the originals. Read more about them here: Proposal: Change Array by copy.

Since cloning is so common, a new specification has been written which has reached stage 3, which will give us a host of new ways to copy and then change an array. This proposal is called the "Change Array by Copy" proposal. Let's take a look at how it works.

SO, you're using webpack to support CSS imports here, BUT, did you know that you can do this in vanilla JS without webpack using something called import assertions:

This could be implemented as an import assertion[1]:

import foo from 'http://example.com/foo' assert { sha256sum: '...' }

This feature would even be useful in the web platform in general. Along with an assertion for importing plain text files (not just JSON files).

Worth noting that Import Assertions were downgraded to stage 2 from stage 3. The proposal page may continue to say "stage 3" until it can be updated.

Import Assertions: Proposal for syntax to import ES modules with assertions

Also, I'm not sure how that'd work with import assertions. That'd add another round of questions.

Hi, there is a way to import json file like:

If you want the real thing, you're looking for import assertions.

But it's still only a proposal, currently at stage 3 (which means it's almost finalised, pending any critical feedback or refinements, before it gets implemented). You can view the import assertions proposal on GitHub.

I wouldn't use import assertions in any browser since they are still a stage 3 proposal so any browser which implements them is doing before it is standardized and shouldn't be relied upon for anything that matters.

There's an issue for that to be added as aprt of import assertions https://github.com/tc39/proposal-import-assertions/issues/11...
