static in class javascript

// static in class javascript
// Static class methods are defined on the class itself.
// You cannot call a static method on an object, only on an object class.
class Car {
  constructor(name) {
    this.name = name;
  }
  static hello() {
    return "Hello!!";
  }
}

let myCar = new Car("Ford");

// You can call 'hello()' on the Car Class:
document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML = Car.hello();

// But NOT on a Car Object:
// document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML = myCar.hello();
// this will raise an error.
