how to use the upperfirst function from the lodash library in typescript

To use the upperFirst function from the lodash library in TypeScript, follow these steps:

  1. Install the lodash library using a package manager such as npm:

    index.ts
    npm install lodash
    
    19 chars
    2 lines
  2. Import the upperFirst function from the lodash library:

    index.ts
    import { upperFirst } from "lodash";
    
    37 chars
    2 lines
  3. Use the upperFirst function to capitalize the first letter of a string:

    index.ts
    const myString = "hello world";
    const myCapitalizedString = upperFirst(myString);
    console.log(myCapitalizedString); // "Hello world"
    
    133 chars
    4 lines
  4. Optionally, you can specify the locale as the second argument of the upperFirst function:

    index.ts
    const myString = "ßümpflîz";
    const myCapitalizedString = upperFirst(myString, "tr");
    console.log(myCapitalizedString); // "SSümpflîz"
    
    134 chars
    4 lines

    In this example, the locale is set to Turkish ("tr") which has specific rules for capitalizing certain letters.

Note: Make sure to include the lodash library in your TypeScript project's build process, either through a bundler or by importing it in your HTML file.
