String.prototype.padLeft Codemod

Introduction

This codemod replaces uses of the String.prototype.padLeft method with the built-in String.prototype.padStart method. The goal is to eliminate the reliance on the less common padLeft method, reducing unnecessary dependencies and simplifying the codebase.

Before

javascript
Copy
const paddedString = myString.padLeft(5, '0');

After

javascript
Copy
const paddedString = myString.padStart(5, '0');
