@override

Syntax

@override

Overview

@override documents that a method intentionally replaces a method of the same name in a parent class. This helps readers understand the inheritance chain and signals that the override is deliberate.

Example

class Logger {
  /**
   * Write a message to the log.
   * @param {string} message
   */
  log(message) {
    console.log(message);
  }
}

class SilentLogger extends Logger {
  /**
   * @override
   */
  log(message) {
    // Silent — do nothing.
  }
}
