I once implemented type checking in ES5 as a proof-of-concept: https://github.com/panuhorsmalahti/typed-javascript

you dont need proxies, here is how decorators work and how you can implement them yourself, without the syntactic sugar obviously

Proxies are an entire different thing.

No these aren't the same as proxies. ES7 has class decorators that can only be used on class methods.

I know they're not the same, but I'd love to be able to use some of the thins I can use with decorators, but on plain objects.

You can also use them on class declarations themselves and object literals - https://github.com/wycats/javascript-decorators#object-liter...

es7 decorators can also be used on vanilla objects, not just classes.

Really? Any tutorials/posts/examples of using them on plain objects anywhere?

Yeah, check some of the examples in the readme
