TypeScript String

In this tutorial, you’ll learn about the TypeScript string data type. Like JavaScript, TypeScript uses double quotes (") or single quotes (') to surround string literals:

let name: string = 'Selvan';
let title: string = "Front-End Developer";

TypeScript also supports template strings that use the backtick (`) to surround characters.

The template strings allow you to create multi-line strings and provide the string interpolation features.

The following example shows how to create multi-line string using the backtick (`):

let description = `This TypeScript string can 
span multiple 
lines using 
the backtick \`
`;

String interpolations allow you to embed the variables into the string like this:

let name: string = `Selvan`;
let title: string = `Front-End Developer`;
let details: string = `I'm ${name}. 
I'm a ${title}.`;

console.log(details);

Output:

I'm Selvan. 
I'm a Front-End Developer`.

Conclusion

1. In TypeScript, all strings get the string type.
2. Like JavaScript, TypeScript uses double quotes ("), single quotes ('), and backtick (`) to surround string literals.
