The purpose of string padding is to add characters to a string, so it reaches a specific length.

padEnd(), introduced in ES2017, adds such characters at the end of the string.

padEnd(targetLength [, padString])

Sample usage:

padEnd()
‘test’.padEnd(4)	‘test’
‘test’.padEnd(5)	‘test ‘
‘test’.padEnd(8)	‘test    ‘
‘test’.padEnd(8, ‘abcd’)	‘testabcd’
