Answer to StackExchange SharePoint Question "[Deleteing SharePoint List elements with specific values in a column][2]"

Sample Example: using REST API and ES6

I wanted to provide an example that doesn't use jQuery.

The answer is longer than it strictly needs to be. However, if you are doing this a lot, the helpers and utility functions, with some light error handling, come in handy.

The code below assumes you have [JSON Light][1] enabled in your SharePoint Environment. (Supported in 2013 via SP1 and add some assembly references to the web.config. JSON Light is present in 2016, 2019, SPO. Not supported in 2010)
