What is the difference between JavaScript’s `apply` and `call` methods?

Yep, nailed it, @shilpa.chandel. Having spent time maintaining both modern and legacy codebases, I’d add that with ES6 giving us the spread operator, the javascript apply vs.call debate has softened a bit. You can now do everything apply did using call with spread syntax, like func.call(thisArg, ...argsArray).

So today, developers tend to lean toward call because it reads more cleanly and aligns better with modern syntax practices. But apply still has its place — especially in legacy code or when you’re unsure whether all environments support spread. In real-world use, I mostly pick the one that fits the data structure I’m working with. At this point, it’s really about readability and intent more than performance.
