JavaScript String Reference


JavaScript Strings

A JavaScript string stores a series of characters like "John Doe".

A string can be any text inside double or single quotes:

let carName1 = "Volvo XC60";
let carName2 = 'Volvo XC60';
Try it Yourself »

String indexes are zero-based:

The first character is in position 0, the second in 1, and so on.

For a tutorial about Strings, read our JavaScript String Tutorial.


String Properties and Methods

Normally, strings like "John Doe", cannot have methods or properties because they are not objects.

But with JavaScript, methods and properties are also available to strings, because JavaScript treats strings as objects when executing methods and properties.
