How to convert integers to hex string in JavaScript?

To convert integers to hex string in JavaScript, we can use the number’s toString method.

For instance, we write:

const g = 255;
const gPadded = Number(g).toString(16).padStart(2, "0");
console.log(gPadded)

to convert g to a number with Number.

Then we call toString with 16 to convert the number to a hex string.

Finally, we call padStart with length 2 and string '0' to pad the string to 2 characters with 0’s at the start of the string.

So gPadded is 'ff'.

Conclusion

To convert integers to hex string in JavaScript, we can use the number’s toString method.
