How to get route name without Forward Slash in ReactJS

Question

I have created a component where I am getting Route name through window.location.pathname it is working fine and gives me a route name but I want to remove forward slash / from route name . I am beginner to ReactJS , Could someone please help me how to solve this problem ?

const pathName=window.location.pathname;

in react router 2 you can do `this.props.routes[this.props.routes.length-1]` to get current route. — Isaac Vidrine, Mar 25 '19 at 16:51
@IsaacVidrine that's a pretty old version though, the current react router version is v5. Does the same code work in up to date versions? — Sterling Archer, Mar 25 '19 at 16:55
@SterlingArcher can't confirm v5 but [this](https://stackoverflow.com/a/43908438/8167494) seems to be the accepted answer for v4. — Isaac Vidrine, Mar 25 '19 at 23:00

You can use substr to take string after / only

const pathName= window.location.pathname.substr(1,)

console.log(pathName)
