// MDN Docs: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Array/from

const apiCategories = [
  { id: 0, title: "javascript", description: "...", other: "..." },
  { id: 1, title: "React", description: "...", other: "..." }
];

const transformApiCategories = () => {
  return Array.from(apiCategories, category => {
    return {label: category.title, value: category.id};
  });
};
  
console.log(transformApiCategories());
// [0: Object {label: "javascript" value: 0}
// 1: Object {label: "React" value: 1}]

// Example use in a react select component.
return (<SelectControl options={ transformApiCategories() }/>)
