I have array of items in the following structure.

[{column: 1, name: 'one'}, {column: 2, name: 'Two'},{column: 2, name: 'Three'},{column: 3, name: 'Four'}]

Need to loop through the array and items with same column value should be wrapped in single parent. Like,

<div class="parent">
    One
</div>
<div class="parent">
    <div>Two</div>
    <div>Three</div>
</div>
<div class="parent">
    Four
</div>

As you can see the second parent element have two child, because they have same column value "2".

Aggregate array based on column and then generate data based on aggregated value.

const array = [{column: 1, name: 'one'}, {column: 2, name: 'Two'},{column: 2, name: 'Three'},{column: 3, name: 'Four'}]

const aggregatedArray = array.reduce((agg, {column, name})=>{
  if(!Array.isArray(agg[column)){
    agg[volumn] = []
  }
  agg[column].push(name)
  return agg
}, {})

Object.entries().map([key, value]=><div className="parent">
  {value.map(v=><div>{v}</div>)}
</div>)

there is a couple of syntax errors: agg[column] missing ], ([key, value]) missing (), ...

const arr0 = [
  {column: 1, name: 'one'},
  {column: 2, name: 'Two'},
  {column: 2, name: 'Three'},
  {column: 3, name: 'Four'},
];
/* convert Array<{ column: number, name: string }>
 * to Array<Array<string>>
 * 
 * convert(arr0) return [['one'], ['two', 'three'], ['four']]
 */
const convert = arr => arr.reduce((acc, { column, name }) => {
  const index = column - 1;

  if (!acc[index]) {
    acc[index] = [name];
  } else {
    acc[index].push(name);
  }
  
  return acc;
}, []);
