repeat()

repeat() invokes a string-producing callback a fixed number of times and concatenates the results. The callback receives a zero-based index.

Fixed Repetition

import { repeat } from "@calvinbonner/minifw/helpers";

const stars = repeat(3, () => "*");
const rows = repeat(2, (index) => `<li>Row ${index + 1}</li>`);

repeat(0, callback) returns an empty string. The helper uses JavaScript's Array.from({ length: count }) behavior, so provide a non-negative integer for predictable output.

Use each() for data you already have in an array. Both helpers return ordinary strings that can be interpolated into html in a page(), partial(), or fragment().
