A Friendly Introduction to the Document Object Model (DOM) API

The Document Object Model (DOM) is the browser’s in-memory representation of your HTML, letting JavaScript select elements (querySelector), listen to events (addEventListener), update content (textContent), toggle styles (classList), and create/insert nodes (createElement, insertAdjacentElement). With it, a button can change a box’s text, toggle a highlight class, set a data attribute, or insert a new paragraph right after the box—no page reload required—illustrating the simple flow: select, listen, update.

Secure Login Access with Username and Password on Mobile Device and Laptop

A gentle intro to the Credential Management API

The Credential Management API lets your site securely store and retrieve user credentials through the browser’s built‑in manager—no brittle autofill hacks required. In our demo, a successful login stores a PasswordCredential, and a single click later retrieves and auto-fills it for returning users. It’s a progressive enhancement: your form still works everywhere, but supported browsers deliver a faster, lower-friction sign-in. Pair it with proper autocomplete attributes today, and plan for WebAuthn/passkeys to level up tomorrow.
