Learn all about the JavaScript padEnd() method for manipulating strings.
String padding involves adding characters to a string in order to achieve a specific length. Introduced in ES2017, the padEnd() method is used to append characters at the end of a string.
padEnd(targetLength [, padString])
Here is an example of how to use padEnd():
| padEnd() | |
|---|---|

| ‘test’.padEnd(8) | ‘test ’ |
| ‘test’.padEnd(8, ‘abcd’) | ‘testabcd’ |
