String.fromCharCode(...array)
will also work
Please notice that the spread syntax in function calls, probabaly has a length limit.
Hi @bkdotcom or anyone who is interested in multi-byte encodings, the TextDecoder could be used.
const a = [0xE2, 0x98, 0xB9];
const u8a = new Uint8Array(a);
const utf8decoder = new TextDecoder('utf-8');
const decodedText = utf8decoder.decode(u8a);
console.log(decodedText);See also on a TypeScript Playground.
