Removing vowels in a string

I’m trying to do a javacsript code so it can remove all the vowels from a string. However I’m facing some difficulties, there must be something from javascript that I didn’t understand that well. I know how to check is one variable is similar or not to another, bit checking if a specific character is among a string is quite nervewrecking. Could you please tell me how to do it ? Thank you

If str is your string try something like : str.replace(/[aeiou]/gi, ''); [aeiou] : all vowels g modifier: global. All matches (don't return after first match) i modifier: insensitive. Case insensitive match (ignores case of [a-zA-Z]) Try the expression /[aeiou]/gi in one site with regular like : https://regexr.com/ to understand more

I have to admit that your solution work. Thank you for that. However I was hoping for a little more complex code with loops, arrays etc.. to understand the logic
