What is ESNext?

Question

I\'ve come across the term ESNext, and wondering it is the same as the ECMAScript.

So, I have these questions here:

• What is ESNext, actually?

Answer 1

ESNext is a name that always indicates the next version of JavaScript.

The current ECMAScript version is ES2018. It was released in June 2018.

Proposals to the ECMAScript standard are organized in stages. Stages 1–3 are an incubator of new features, and features reaching Stage 4 are finalized as part of the new standard.
