What is the dir method?

I don't understand the question for this problem. What does it mean to add the 'dir' method on the console?

app.js 
var name = "Andrew";
var details = { favouriteLanguage: "JavaScript", age: 31, children: 2.4 } 
var errorMessage = "Something bad has occurred";

console.log(name)
console.log(details)
