Comment on Why I Like Using Maps (and WeakMaps) for Handling DOM Nodes

Comments

This might be one of the more interesting articles I've read in a few years that deal with low level direct DOM manipulation vs "yet another thing about React".

Yeah, I’ve too noticed how hard it is to find any web development guidance involving direct DOM manipulation now!

I was recently refactoring some code and wondering whether to use a (JS) class… The search results were mostly about React Class Components. And I was contemplating building a reusable component… results from the past decade were split between React Components and Web components. (In retrospect I should’ve tried DDG or something not connected to my search history lol).

Anyway where are the vanilla JS/TS DOM manipulators blogging these days? I guess here is one, thankful for the post :)
