Template literals with nested backticks(`) in ES6

Question

How can I write a template literal in ECMAScript 6 that will contain backticks(`) in and by itself, (i.e. nested backticks)?

For example:

var qu         


        

Answer 1

Personally I consider ES6 template literals to be inadequate for SQL (and Markdown) principally because you can't use backtick characters. I wish they would add triple-quoted strings to fix this properly.

In the meantime, since you're probably using a transpiler for ES6 anyway, you might consider using triplet (disclaimer: I am the author).
