# `takeWhile()`

The takeWhile method returns items in the collection until the given callback returns false:

const collection = collect([1, 2, 3, 4]);

const subset = collection.takeWhile(item => item < 3);

subset.all();

// [1, 2]

If the callback never returns false, the takeWhile method will return all items in the collection.
