What is this?

Template literals use backticks ` ` and let you embed expressions with ${} and write multi-line strings easily.

Why should you care?

Cleaner than "Hello " + name + "!" — especially for HTML snippets and SQL in apps.

See it live — copy this example

Paste into an HTML file or the browser console (F12). Use Run below when the live editor is available.

const name = "Riya";
const price = 499;
const line = `Hi ${name}, total ₹${price * 2}`;
console.log(line);

What happened?

  • Backticks allow ${expression} inside.
  • Line breaks in the string are kept.

Practice next

  1. Build a multi-line message with backticks.
  2. Embed name and price in one template.
  3. Nest ${1 + 2} arithmetic inside.
  4. Build an HTML snippet template for a product card with ${title} and ${price}.
  5. Use tagged template raw strings if exploring advanced syntax.

Remember

Use backticks ` ` ${expr} embeds values Great for multi-line text
