DOM Overview

The DOM is the browser’s object tree for HTML. JavaScript reads and updates nodes to change the UI. Write tasks here are quiz-focused (no real browser in the grader).

  • document.querySelector finds elements.
  • textContent / innerHTML update content (prefer textContent when possible).
  • Events (click, submit) drive interactivity.
