Event delegation in JavaScript

I have been making web development videos to help me solidify what I've been learning. This one is about event delegation in JavaScript. How to add one listener to multiple elements. https://youtu.be/buVEB6TI3VU

Hey Alex nice vedio. In the video i saw the u were trying to get the event.target like this el.addEventListner("click", console.log(event.target))
But did not work. To make it work just pass {target} to console without event.

Hey Alex, just thought you might want to know that you can embed your videos directly in dev.to with this syntax:

{% youtube buVEB6TI3VU %}
