To get the hash value from the browser URL, you can use the location.hash property from the global window object using JavaScript.
For example, let's say we have a URL called https://mywebsite.com#portfolio in the browser.
As you can see that after the .com there is a string after the # symbol (hash symbol). To get that value from the browser URL we can use the window.location.hash property in JavaScript.
It can be done like this,
// Get the hash value from the browser URL
const hashValue = window.location.hash;
console.log(hashValue); // #portfolio
- The property returns the
hashvalue with the hash symbol as its prefix.
See the above code live in this codesandbox.
That's all 😃!
