Using Template Strings

Modified on Wed, 7 Aug at 3:07 PM

Strings support using embedded expressions (variables such as objects, arrays, numbers and more) within them.

Using + Operator

Example

let name = "Alice";

let greeting = "Hello, " + name + "!";

greeting;//"Hello Alice!"

let name = "Alice";

let message = `Hello, ${name}!`;

message;//"Hello, Alice!"

1. The + operator

let firstName = "John";
let age = 30;
let message = "Hello, " + firstName + ". You are " + age + " years old.";

message;//Hello, John. You are 30 years old.

2. Template Strings

To convert a regular string to a template string, you need to use backticks (`) around the string instead of double quotation marks (“”) and add any expression with the ${}` within a template string.

let firstName = "John";
let age = 30;
let message = `Hello, ${firstName.toUpperCase()}. You are ${age} years old.`;

message;//Hello, JOHN. You are 30 years old.

Here are few problems where these concepts are used:
