Examples

Arrays with Two Items

import delimiter from 'delimiter';

// JSX
const myLinks = [
  <CharlesStover />,
  <Quisido />
];

delimiter(myLinks); // [ <CharlesStover />, ' and ', <Quisido /> ]

Arrays with Three or More Items

import delimiter from 'delimiter';

// JSX
const myLinks = [
  <CharlesStover />,
  <Quisido />,
  <Mtgenius />
