Can javascript objects be compared with python dictionaries?

Answer 1

In no way!

Dictionaries cannot be instantiated, inherited, they do not have a `self` context. They cannot contain self methods or have a constructor.

JavaScript objects are similar to python objects except they are prototype-based not class-based.

In python, a class is a blueprint for an object. In JavaScript, a prototype is a blueprint of an object.

Answer 2

nah, but json can be converted to a python dictionary in python very easily using the json module
