type check

Node.js

function typeOf(obj) {
  return {}.toString.call(obj).split(' ')[1].slice(0,-1).toLowerCase()
}

const values = [
  true,
  10,
  'foo',
  Symbol('bar'),
  null,
  undefined,
  NaN,
  {},
  [],
  function(){},
  new Error(),
  new Date(),
  /a/,
  new Map(),
  new Set(),
  Promise.resolve(),
  function *() {},
  class {},
]

for (value of values) {
  console.log(typeOf(value))
}

Output
