The DOM, or Document Object Model, is a programming interface for web documents. It represents the structure of a web page as a tree of objects.
<html>
<head>
<title>Simple app</title>
<meta name="description" content="A brief description of the webpage content for search engines and social media.">
</head>
<body>
<h1>
hi there
</h1>
</body>
</html>
The DOM abstracts the structure of the document into a tree of objects, allowing scripts to manipulate the content and structure dynamically. This abstraction enables more complex interactions and functionalities beyond just static HTML.
