I have a search UI that is already working using Nativescript Angular but it only returns searched name after only typing that specific name in the search bar. So, I am trying to figure out how to return for example all the names that start with a letter (A). If I typed letter (A) in the searchbar.

I already tried to use \uf8ff but it returns all the names stored in the database when I just type any letter so I removed it.

const query: firestore.Query = firebase.firestore().collection("user")
    .where("nameToSearch", ">=",searchValue)
    .where("nameToSearch", "<=",searchValue)
}

-no expected

It shows the searched name only after fully typing the name not just by typing first letter.
