How To Format Currency With JavaScript

In this tutorial, you'll learn how to format currency with JavaScript.

If you have large numbers that represent product prices or other types of currency information you'll probably want to display them to the user in an easy to read format.

There's been nothing really available that will do this for you so you would normally have to write your own function to add a currency symbol and add separators to make large numbers readable.

However, with the new internationalisation objects you can create formatters that will take a local as an option and then format numbers according to built in settings.

In this JavaScript tutorial, we'll look at how to do just that by setting a large number to be displayed in dollards. Channel Handle @codebubb
