you can do this if you know it will always be the same format:

window.location.href.split('/')

then it'll return an array and access the index in the array you want:

in this case window.location.href.split('/')[4]

Get location.pathname:

const url = new URL("https://www.mrkashyap.com/users/manish"); // url = location;
console.log(url.pathname.split("/").pop())
