adding binary numbers in javascript

var addBinary = function (a, b) {
  let sum = BigInt(`0b${a}`) + BigInt(`0b${b}`);
  return sum.toString(2);
};

binary addition javascript

function binaryAddition(a,b){
  var result = "",
      carry = 0;

  while(a || b || carry){
    let sum = +a.slice(-1) + +b.slice(-1) + carry; // get last digit from each number and sum 

    if( sum > 1 ){  
      result = sum%2 + result;
      carry = 1;
    }
    else{
      result = sum + result;
      carry = 0;
    }
    
    // trim last digit (110 -> 11)
    a = a.slice(0, -1)
    b = b.slice(0, -1)
  }
  
  return result;
}
