toCamelCase

Converts a string to camelcase.

Use replace() to remove underscores, hyphens, and spaces and convert words to camelcase.

const toCamelCase = str => {
let regex = rx = /[A-Z]{2,}(?=[A-Z][a-z]+[0-9]*|\b)|[A-Z]?[a-z]+[0-9]*|[A-Z]|[0-9]+/g;
    let arr = str.match(regex);
    arr = arr.map(x =>{
        return x.slice(0,1).toUpperCase() + x.slice(1).toLowerCase();
    });
    str = arr.join('')
    return str.slice(0,1).toLowerCase() + str.slice(1)
    }
