Yep, almost same methods or notation
I JUST got done telling my bootcamp instructor how I need to review the DOM. And then I open my phone and see a notification for this video. Got dammit Kyle you've done it again. 👏
Great rundown! I never really solidified my DOM traversal skills in my coding bootcamp, we just touched on a bit of vanilla js then jumped into react. Thanks for clearing some of my confusion up
Hi!! I just wanted to say, that your channel and your videos are true to their perfection. As the name goes so as the content 🤗 Love you bro, your efforts are forever appreciated!!
Thanks so much for explaining the most powerful DOM Traversal methods in such an easy way, Kyle! Keep up the good work👍
The best traversal class. You rock on teaching and you are proving for each video that you are simplifying the web for everybody. Congratulations, man
Such a pleasure watching you explain! These concepts can be tough but you're very assuring and confident. I rightaway went to check out your js course, and purchased it immediately. Looking forward on starting! Feels like the first day of school :)

Thank you so much for the support!
One of the best videos that I have seen for traversing the DOM. It's extremely easy to understand to the point, and very clear on what each action does!
I just realised that I've learnt soo much JavaScript / React from you, it's ridiculous. Thank you!

Why do you think it’s ridiculous ?
Had to deal with these this week. This video would help a lot. Thank you Kyle! 👍🏼
It really did simplify the most important parts of the DOM traversal. Awesome job!
Dude you are amazing.Thanks for making that Frontend/Backend guide, it's so easy to follow and makes my learning process a lot easier. Love you!
Thank you... appreciate your efforts in making these videos. Keep it up my friend.
Hey Kyle, your videos literally blown my mind. So much knowledge with so ease. Thanks a Lot buddy!
You’re a natural teacher, thanks for all the videos!
These explanations are so clean, congrats on that!
For those who are on the fence about his JS course, I suggest you buy it. I'm following his course and I can tell you that Kyle is a great teacher!
Very good video and I appreciate the timestamps as I knew some but I could skip to those which were new to me.
too good with very simple examples. it cleared my concepts in 14 minutes sharp.... much appreciated
You're very good at explained things, it show us that it's not as difficult as we thought, actually it's really simple.
This is amazing man. Thank you for making this video!
Cool tutorial! This is exactly what moustache binding replaces, so no more direct DOM calls (of course react ref can always be used for specific scenarios ). Though dom tree navigation is still needed for certain applications, js frameworks are phasing this out. For better or worse👍👍👍 Btw THAT IS A KILLER LOOKING JACKSON GUITAR IN THE BACK! Loving it 🎸 🎸 rock on. 0:01
Great revision. Thanks man!
Great tutorial. I have learnt so much from it. Thanks Kyle
This was interesting to me. I am a self-taught developer, but mostly worked pretty extensively with React in my job so not much vanilla javascript dom manipulation which I am looking to learn more.
Great ! I learned “closest”. Thank you
Awesome!! Well explained & easy to follow!
Thanks for revision!!!
Thank you , Kyle . I learnt something today.
The tutorial is super useful and easy to understand. And it solve the problem that bothered me for 2 days . Thank you so much
Your explanation is pretty good, 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks for all the free tutorials. Wondering if you could do a video on just general coding fatigue and any tips on how to remedy it?
Thank you for simplifying JavaScript. I always learn new stuffs when I watch your videos
just start learning web dep, absolutely love all your videos, thank you for making and sharing those ❤
Very helpful stuff, thank you so much!
great guide, literally the best material online for learning DOM
Havent used query selectors on anything other than document and first time seeing closest() method aswell. Good vid thanks dude :)

closest() is crucial, especially when dealing with events. (almost) never go up with a while loop
Happy to see this video. I think you could have mentioned a few more details for a more rounded look at scope with querySelector. Also you can traverse in a chain with closest().querySelector().closest().querySelector().closest().
9:09 makes me have to clarify traversing along parent children across parent siblings. It comes up a lot with some layouts. Kudos with distinguishing closest for ancestors, and I appreciate how you go about familiarizing usage of techniques like detailing .children properties on a variable and converting with Array.from to establish an array simple to handle with .forEach. Built-in properties of ES6.
I always learn a new thing from you, no matter what. Greetings from México.

I am so glad I am in your discord. Someone just saved my life lol or helped me with this. I also love your CSS Battles. You should do that with JS to see how you both differ in your writing functions, that would be awesome to see.
Nice simple tutorial. Thanks.
You are literally the best teacher with clear explanations .. totally awesome content .. thank u so so much ..
Thank you. Iv watched several videos of js and css in this channel. Very very useful.
Thank you so much !!!! One of the best videos!!!!
I like the way you explain it so much! even gonna forgive you missed semicolons and different quotation marks
Super! Thank you, Kyle!
Amazing, thanks Kyle!
It really helped me... Thank you very much !!!!
You Just made DOM easy for me ❤️. Thanks a lot .
Thanks Kyle! Great stuff in this one!
9:50 is such a shocker I had no idea thanks yo!
super super useful. Noone actualy talk much about dom traversal, but this is the most important thing when you learning JS. I had soooo much problems with that cos i know some programming in other languages and have ideas how to do smth in js, but i cannot simply connect my code to my html+css page, now it looks super easy.
Great tutorial, man!
Good Content, learned some new things!
I am following your front end development road map as the stepping stone for my career bro. Seriously they way u explain is great and i think by following ur tutorial i can be placed in MNC or other web development firm sooner. But few things I can’t understand quickly it doesn’t mean ur teachings are not good it’s just me who is slow at the moment. But i am trying to push my limit to the end to grab the knowledge of how programming works. Thanks man!❣️🙏🏻
I just want to say Thanks man :) from the bottom of my heart.
I thought I knew all this but watched just in case. You taught me that closest goes upward. Thanks! PS. I am curious to see how you look without your hair styled haha
Your methods are fascinating thanks alot🎉
I work as Front-end Dev for 2 years now (small and medium software companies), and I didn't know about closest, nextElementSibling and previousElementSibling methods at all 😲 Usually I write my own functions to find specific parent or sibling. Thanks for enlighten me about this xD

Absolutly amazing video!
Excellent explaining.
wow your teaching skill is amazing
thank you bro. love from Türkiye
Great examples!
Hi ! Just wanted to check if I knew everything about traversing, so classic check up. I do, but god your video was just extremly clear and pleasant to listen to. I subscribed ! =D By the way, for the beginners, the main difference between "parentElement" and "parentNode" methods is that the first one returns an HTML collection, which is kind of an array storing ONLY elements, while the second returns a nodeList, which returns all the parent nodes. Nodes can contain elements but also text / comment etc. ... So it's not a weird behavior but more a very specific method that we, as web developers, need to take in consideration.
Thank you so much I wish you the best.
Great content..bro..thanks
Thanks Thanks Thanks , Great Tutorial
now i understand dom! thank you
Another great video!!
I got a whole lotta love for this video.
Great video ive been struggling so much with this concept as ive been using the odin project and in their js course they keep linking to articles that provide examples for all the basics of js but they use these damn selectors and DOM manipulation in their examples which has made learning js 100x harder than its needed to be so this video is a huge help

Brooo, I’m in the same situation, I love the Odin project but Mann these damn dom manipulation. How is it going now for you?
you are too good to describe for words!!!!!
Brilliant!) Explained many things for me)
Love it!❤❤
Thanks man ✌
I checked the Timestamps and I was like meh I know all of these but I watched the video anyway because you never know what you will find and then you mentiond the closest() function which I never knew existed ! I'm glad I stayed till the end of the video!
The only time I ever touch jQuery is when I need to traverse the DOM and now I don't need it at all. Thanks a lot.
Thank you very much.
mannn, thanks a lot for showing this method Array from, i was struggling with HTML Collections
Thank you!
Thanks man :)
Thanks, again!
I love you, thanks a lot !
Excellent content as usual 🙏! How do you learn and find materials to master subjects in this depth!
