Capitalizes the first letter of a string.
|
|
|
|
- Use array destructuring and `String.prototype.toUpperCase()` to capitalize first letter, `...rest` to get array of characters after first letter and then `Array.prototype.join('')` to make it a string again.
|
|
- Omit the `lowerRest` parameter to keep the rest of the string intact, or set it to `true` to convert to lowercase.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
const capitalize = ([first, ...rest], lowerRest = false) =>
|
|
first.toUpperCase() + (lowerRest ? rest.join('').toLowerCase() : rest.join(''));
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
capitalize('fooBar'); // 'FooBar'
|
|
capitalize('fooBar', true); // 'Foobar'
|
|
```
