JavaScript triangle wrong direction how to make it correct?

I have a javascript question, I want to make a Triangle like this

     *
    **
   ***
  ****
 *****

this is my code which makes opposite direction

    for(let i = 0;i<=5;i++){
        let str = "";
        for(let j = 0;j<i;j++){
            str += "*";
        }
        console.log(str)
    }

I wanna use for loop to make this triangle down bellow instead of using “repeat”.

    for(let i = 0;i<=5;i++){
        let str = "";
        str = " ".repeat(5-i);
        str2 = "*".repeat(i);
        console.log(str+str2);
    }

Answer

You can write it like this:

for(let i = 0;i<=5;i++){
    let str = "";
    for(let j = i;j<5;j++){
        str += " ";
    }
    for(let j = 0;j<i;j++){
        str += "*";
    }
    console.log(str)
}

This method can be used in all other programming languages, cause there’s no special js syntax or special js built-in function.
