In this article, we would like to show you how to get substring after character using JavaScript.
Quick solution:
xxxxxxxxxx1
const character = ':';2
const string = 'user:password';3
4
const index = string.indexOf(character);5
const substring = string.substring(index + 1);6

console.log(substring); // password
In this example, we create a reusable function that helps to get the substring after indicated character.
