# no-new-object

> Disallow `new Object()` in favor of `{}`

`new Object()` creates the same empty object as `{}`. The literal is shorter and lets you list the properties in place.

ESLint has deprecated this rule. Use `no-object-constructor` instead, which also reports `Object()` without `new`.

## Examples

{/* bad */}
```js
const headers = new Object();
headers.accept = "text/html";

Not reported:
