+# Document Object Model (DOM)
+
+## Introduction
+
+- The **Document Object Model (DOM)** is a programming interface for HTML and XML documents.
+- It represents the page so that programs can change the document structure, style, and content.
+- The DOM represents the document as nodes and objects; that way, programming languages can interact with the page.
+
+## Basic Concepts
+
+### Nodes
+
+- **Node**: The basic unit of the DOM, representing a single point in the document tree.
+  - **Element Node**: Represents an HTML element (e.g., `<div>`).
+  - **Text Node**: Contains the text content inside an element.
+  - **Attribute Node**: Represents attributes of an HTML element.
+
+### The Document Object
+
+- The `document` object represents the whole HTML document.
+- Methods like `getElementById`, `querySelector`, and `createElement` allow interaction with the DOM.
+
+## DOM Tree
+
+- The document is represented as a tree structure, with the root being the `document` object.
+- **Parent Node**: A node containing other nodes.
+- **Child Node**: A node within another node.
+- **Sibling Nodes**: Nodes that share the same parent.
+
+## Accessing Elements
+
+### Methods
+
+- `document.getElementById('id')`: Returns the element with the specified `id`.
+
+- `document.getElementsByClassName('className')`: Returns a collection ( HTML Collection ) of elements with the specified class name.
+    - An HTMLCollection is a collection of HTML elements, similar to a NodeList, but with some key differences. It's an array-like object, meaning it has a length property and allows indexed access, but it's not a true array.
+    - We have to convert it to an array to use functions on it.
+
+- `document.querySelectorAll('selector')`: Returns a NodeList of elements matching the CSS selector.
+
+    - NodeList : A "NodeList" is a collection of nodes, typically returned by methods like 'document.querySelectorAll()' or 'document.getElementsByClassName()'. 
+    - It represents a list of DOM elements, which can be accessed like an array, although it's not a true array.
+    - Although Nodelist is not an array but it can be accessed like an array by using indexing.
+
+- `document.getElementsByTagName('tagName')`: Returns a collection of elements with the specified tag name.
+
+- `document.querySelector('selector')`: Returns the first element matching the CSS selector.
+
+```javascript
+
+// Accessing Elements
+
+const elementId = document.getElementById('myElement');
+const elementsClass = document.getElementsByClassName('myClass');
+const elementsQuery = document.querySelectorAll('.myClass');
+const elementsTag = document.getElementsByTagName('p');
+const elementQuery = document.querySelector('#myElement');
+
+```
+
+### Modifying Attributes
+
+- `element.setAttribute('attribute', 'value')`: Sets the value of an attribute.
+- `element.getAttribute('attribute')` : Gets the attribute value.
+- `element.removeAttribute('attribute')`: Removes an attribute.
+
+
+``` javascript 
+
+// Modifying Attributes
+
+// Example Element
+let title = document.getElementById('title');
+
+// Setting an Attribute
+title.setAttribute('class', 'highlighted'); 
+// This sets the 'class' attribute of the 'title' element to 'highlighted'.
+
+// Getting an Attribute
+let classValue = title.getAttribute('class'); 
+console.log(classValue); 
+// This retrieves the value of the 'class' attribute, which is 'highlighted'.
+
+// Removing an Attribute
+title.removeAttribute('class'); 
+// This removes the 'class' attribute from the 'title' element.
+
+title.style.backgroundColor = '#212121'
+title.style.color = '#fff'
+title.style.padding = '10px'
+title.style.margin = '10px'
+title.style.borderRadius = '10px'
+title.style.width = '100%'
+title.style.height = '100%'
+
+```
+
+### What is difference between 'textContent', 'innerHTML' and 'innerText'
+
+- `textContent`: Returns the text content of an elements, including text within script and style elements.
+- `innerText`: Returns the text content of an element, excluding text within script and style elements.
+- `innerHTML`: Returns the HTML content of an element and its descendants.
+
+
+
+
+### Example
+
+
+``` javascript
+
+// Accessing elements in Nodelist
+
+const headCollection = document.querySelectorAll('h2')
+headCollection[0].style.color = 'orange'
+
+
+// Accessing elements in HTML collection
+
+const listName = document.getElementsByClassName('list-item')
+
+console.log(listName)
+
+// converting HTML Collection into an array
+const convertedArray = Array.from(listName)
+console.log(convertedArray)
+
+convertedArray.forEach( (item) => {
+    item.style.color = 'orange'
+})
+
+```
