> does JS have enums?

No, but TypeScript and Dart do.

Enums don't really work without types.

But using Symbols for fake enums is probably a good idea.

    class Enum {
      constructor(...props) {
        props.forEach(p => this[p] = Symbol(p));
      }
    }
    const dir = Object.freeze(new Enum(...'NESW'));
    console.log(dir.E === dir.E); // true
    console.log(dir.E === dir.N); // false

Slightly awkward, but this might be about as good as it gets.
