trimStart method

The trimStart method removes whitespaces at the start of a string and returns a new string without changing the original string.

Syntax

string.trimStart();

Example

Let's remove the extra spaces in the string ' abcde ':

let res = ' abcde '.trimStart(); console.log(res);

As a result of executing the code, we will see that all spaces have been removed at the beginning of the string:

'abcde '
