If you want to add multiple CSS styles to an element in Vanilla JS, you could do something like this:
// Grab a button element.
const button = document.querySelector('button');
button.style.backgroundColor = "red";
button.style.color = "white";
button.style.padding = "20px";
It works but looks a bit tedious and unclean. And it's hard to pass such styles around. Would be nice to put those styles in an object, like this:
const style = {
backgroundColor: "red",
color: "white",
padding: "20px"
};
Now, we need to just mix our style
object into button.style
, like this:
Object.assign(button.style, style);
And voilà , we're done!

P.S. information for those who while reading this, sputters and tears the hair on the head, shouting: "Use CSS!". This one is not about "Why," it's about "How." Of course, you could and, in most cases, should use CSS for this, but that's another story. Relax.
