Remove duplicate values with a Set.
Keep the first occurrence order while deduplicating.
const unique = [...new Set(["red", "blue", "red"])];
console.log(unique.join(", "));Expected output EXAMPLE
red, blue
Details
Requires TypeScript and Node.js. Save as snippet.ts, compile with tsc --strict --target ES2022 --module commonjs snippet.ts, then run node snippet.js. Set preserves insertion order and uses value equality for primitive values.
Tested on Ubuntu 24.04.5 LTS · · TypeScript 5.9.3; Node.js v18.19.1 · nodejs 18.19.1+dfsg-6ubuntu5
Test inputs, results and environment
The exact published code ran in a dedicated Linux test container with prepared inputs. Snippet process uid 65534 with a read-only root filesystem and temporary working files. Networking disabled. Fixtures and output records are isolated from the application database. Testing covers this example and its stated checks, not every input, operating system, or runtime version. The Linux container shares its host's kernel; this is not a native Windows test.
