Deep flattens an array.

Use recursion. Use Array.prototype.concat() with an empty array ([]) and the spread operator (...) to flatten an array. Recursively flatten each element that is an array.

const deepFlatten = arr => [].concat(...arr.map(v => (Array.isArray(v) ? deepFlatten(v) : v)));

deepFlatten([1, [2], [[3], 4], 5]); // [1,2,3,4,5]
