To partially answer:
You can use '__proto__' because a dict is basically Object.create(null),
which in ES6 means __proto__ will be just another property. The dict module
also exports entries, keys, and values, so the iteration protocol for a
dict requires using one of those. An example of using dict:
import { dict, entries } from '@dict';
const myDict = dict({ a: 10, b: 20, c: 30 });
for (let [key, value] of entries(myDict)){
console.log(key, value);
}
