string.prototype.trimleft Codemod

Introduction

This codemod replaces the usage of the deprecated String.prototype.trimleft method with its modern alternative, String.prototype.trimStart. This transformation not only helps in maintaining compatibility with up-to-date JavaScript standards but also reduces the risk of issues arising from the use of obsolete methods.

Before

const myString = "   Hello, World!   ";
const trimmedString = myString.trimleft();

After

const myString = "   Hello, World!   ";
const trimmedString = myString.trimStart();
