How to copy text to clipboard in JavaScript
Wednesday, December 10, 2025
Copying text to the clipboard is a common feature in modern web applications, from “copy code” buttons to sharing links.
As the creator of CoreUI with over 25 years of JavaScript development experience, I’ve implemented this functionality in numerous production components.
The modern and most reliable solution is to use the Clipboard API with navigator.clipboard.writeText().
This method is asynchronous, secure, and works seamlessly across all modern browsers.
