WDS is so nice. no "WHATS UP GUYS AND TODAAY WE ARE LEARNINGGG" - nope. Just a nice, calm, easy to listen to voice and concise and succinct explanations. six months ago I didn't know the difference between the different css selectors and now I am comfortable with react & have started working with firebase. MOST of that came knowledge came from this channel. Couldn't be more grateful. Thanks dude!
Been coding in JS for 25 years and didn't know about doing a matches call on an event object. It's why I look at videos like this now and then. To refresh and also because you are always learning something new!
It's just unreal how amazing you are at teaching new concepts as well as making us rethink learnt ones with a fresh and novel direction. Thanks a lot !!!
When looking for to wrap 1 click event listener around multiple buttons but have each button do it's own thing this pops up and is an absolute god send, now I can clean up my clunky code and publish my Accessibility extention!!!!!! Finally after weeks of errors a solution arrives in hair slick back
wait how the fuck am i understanding it all even when im tired and sleepy and not putting 100% attention its just flowing into my ears, the explanation is so simple and good. Thank you goat
I love event delegation but the one caveat I have is that e. target is always the *most deeply-nested* element. If you want to have your delegate listen for a click event you will be sorely disappointed when it never runs or behaves unexpectedly because your elements are the actual click targets. I've been looking for a clean solution but the easiest thing is to just use a selector that will include the child elements or base everything on the child elements instead of trying to do a container element.
All the sudden I had to start working with JavaScript and I did not put my hands on it since… somewhere around 2008. Your crash courses are being a life savior. Thanks. Btw, great job!
Same! I'm a fairly experienced backend engineer that's managed to avoid JS for a lot of my career. Now I have to work with it these videos are so good!
Hey there, Web Dev Simplified! I just wanted to say that your video on avoiding getting stuck on JavaScript by doing simple things really helped me. Since then, I have attempted to change the way I study JavaScript and while I can't say that I'm striding, I'm definitely moving at a faster pace. I hope you realize just how much you mean to us! Like seriously, your calm mentoring demeanor alone makes these lessons so much more watchable. Thanks a ton!
I’d love to see another video on that last part - or even a course - on React (or Angular since I’m starting to learn observables) and event listener best practices. The more projects the better. Thanks for this great video, Kyle!
@@WebDevSimplified Hey Kyle, I think Ali is on to something. You could make an awesome course on data structures, especially as they are used in the frontend. You could teach it in JavaScript and then show it in React or even in various libraries like Angular, Vue, etc. That would give your courses even more breadth / exposure. Just throwing it out there.
just spent 12 hours yesterday trying to figure why a delete button wouldn't function on a shopping list I'm making. Here you are explaining it in minutes lol
I had understood bubbling since we commonly deal with it, but never really got my head around capturing until this video. Now I understand the third argument in the event parameters. This video has made it crystal clear to me. Thanks very much.
I've brought so many content about JS, Node.js , ALGORITHMS, Design Patters from different instructors and I have NEVER been able to understand any of these in such depth as Kyle makes me do.
This has made my day , I have been working on a routine app to better schedule my classes , in vanilla js with ejs as a templating engine , used a event listener to attach to a modal for picking the time but I needed some way to delete the event listener after I'm done otherwise it would change all the dates at once , this has saved soo much time
easiest way to remember bubbling is that in a row of bubbles if i throw a needles through the bubbles they will pip one after the other in a row til the last one, but when you capture something with a camera for example, the closest thing to the lens will be captured first etc
The beauty of the event delegation at the end is that it's a conventional event listener on the one "element" that there can't be more of and would never need delegation. You produce new things within it, but never a new "it" entirely. So it's a "live" content check.
I've always wondered what does the third parameter in event listener does and Thanks to you !!!! your way of explaining makes everything easy to understand...love from INDIA !!!
I am not gonna lie I found this video as extremely useful as everything I need is in one place and don't need to look around. I am not using Event listeners very often even I would (I am not pro, sorry ) but this video made me to learn more about.
I think Kyle is cool. His English is clean and simple, knows his stuff and is a great teacher...so you know what,let me just smash that subscribe button!
Thank you so much, lol! I was having headache due to the similar issues on my assignment and finally your this video tutorial helped me solve the issue. I am so grateful to you. Thanks once for sharing your knowledge and skills with the world! :)
Teaching is an art but with precision is what Kyle has! I have been a backend guy for 04 years but now I want to do some cool UI stuff your videos are helping a lot. Thanks mate!
I don't usually comment on RUclips but honestly only your tutorials have cleared my all concepts of JS.... Seriously I've been watching #cleverprogramming #freecodecamp and even one's of Mosh Hamadani's but you actually nailed it.. Way too much THANKFUL of yours...!
Kyle your an awesome guy. You explain things thoroughly and clearly. Your pacing is perfect and the visuals you use are informative and easy to read. Keep being awesome man.
This was great. Kind of spooky at the same time as I've been working on a project at work this last week involving bubbling and how to get the tool tips to only show up for the element I've on, not the parent. Lots of other good info that I plan on using. Thank you very much!
I would also mention how to trigger custom events: const someElement = document.querySelector( '#some-element' ); someElement.dispatchEvent(new CustomEvent( 'myEvent', { 'detail': { customValue: "test" } } ) ); someElement.addEventListener( 'myEvent', e => { console.log( e.detail.customValue ) } ); // test I personally use this in angular projects, when there is a js code in assets folder and I need to perform some actions inside ts code (component) depending on js code
Thanks to you I clearly understand now how it really works, moreover now to help me to remember this story about capturing and bubbling, I help myself to remember it with the simple analogy with a sandglass x)

Not only is this a great tutorial on event listeners, it’s also a great way to approach learning how to debug

I FINALLY UNDERSTAND event listeners!! Thanks Kyle!! You're a life saver!
Listen up! - This is, by far , the best tutorial on event listeners I have ever come across. Thank you, Kyle

You're a leader... Who inspires many and leads the beginner warriors.
Wow, this is just what I need at the moment. You’re a lifesaver, thanks!

When it comes to webdevelopment. he is one of the youtuber who explains simple,crisp and clear. Thank you so much.
I've been struggling to understand Delegation & Event Flow, but thanx to this guy now I've understood it well and likely will never forget.

I'm coming from C++ and python and your videos have made me way less mad at javascript. Keep up the great work.
The last one - adding the globalEventListener is a really good trick. Thanks man
This is one of many reasons why I’ve bought all of his courses.

This is the best explanation of event listeners that I have found in youtube so far.
You Sir, my FANTASTIC teacher! Thank you from the bottom of my heart for providing such valuable and well-explained content!
I had understood bubbling since we commonly deal with it, but never really got my head around capturing until this video. Now I understand the third argument in the event parameters. This video has made it crystal clear to me. Thanks very much.
Thanks solved my problem with the event delegation. I spent like an hour trying to figure it out.
It's a very good tutorial. That being said you might wanna show the html-file shortly in the beginning of the video - just for a better understanding.
I've brought so many content about JS, Node.js , ALGORITHMS, Design Patters from different instructors and I have NEVER been able to understand any of these in such depth as Kyle makes me do.
Excellent explanation. I think that a difference between stopPropagation vs stopImmediatePropagation was also worth mentioning.

Add Event Listener for future elements blow my mind. Respect 😎

It's really useful to watch your videos. You keep the same calmed speaking.. I appreciate that!
u r my mentor, U made the whole web alot more simpler and interesting
because its Web Dev Simplified :P
Clean . Crisp . To the point . Hands down , thank god it was the first tutorial i saw
Excellent explanation hands down best eventListner tutorial I've come across, it's insane how easy to digest it was, Thank you Kyle
hidden gem ... kyle's once of the best instructors out there

Look at that fresh fade! Thanks Kyle for the lesson! Will have to watch this a little later on! But I already know it’s awesome!
Thank u much. U literally just solved my life with that event delegation.
Looks like from the next. I dont have read docs for applying event listener. Thank you for the simplest explanation
This is the clearest and neatest that the Event Listeners can get. Thanks buddy!
Figured out yesterday that there was more to event listeners. Guess whose video I chose to watch to clear all doubts😊
I watched this video 2 times. To really understand the event bubbling and event capturing. You taught it really nice and simple way.❤
I never knew how much I didn't know about event listeners. Excellent tut as usual.
Nice and concise overview. Conspicuous by their absence are stopImmediatePropagation and preventDefault methods for the event.
thanks, bro. now I know how to implement removeEventListener() correctly
This is very informative. Eventlisteners are a real deal in JavaScript DOM interactions.
Kyle does good and in-depth research regarding any topic. Best Video.
I am doing JS since 1998 and learned a lot. Thank You
Thank you so much, lol!
I was having headache due to the similar issues on my assignment and finally your this video tutorial helped me solve the issue.
I am so grateful to you.
Thanks once for sharing your knowledge and skills with the world!
:)
can't say having headache say have headache or feel pain in my head
Thanks sir I have learnt so many things from you including advanced css and basics of js now going for advanced js (Modules and js frameworks )
Thank you very much for covering so many options for event listeners
Quality teaching. Seen couple of videos and landed here, you brought smile into my face. Narration matters :)
you explain things so well... im watching all your lessons.
Man... You are a real web dev simplifier👏
Teaching is an art but with precision is what Kyle has! I have been a backend guy for 04 years but now I want to do some cool UI stuff your videos are helping a lot. Thanks mate!
I thought backend guys knew everything?
Already knew this stuff, but definitely a great video for those newer to events in js and i still enjoyed watching regardless. Keep up the good work!
you never fail to surprise. Your channel name is justified
omg 17:00 thank you so much about it ! Knowledge here ..
This is one of the best video on event listner.
The event delegation thing is super clever
You're my favorite professor :))) Your videos are amazing , i learned a lot . Thank you so much for your work !
Oh dude. I like how your break it down and structure your tutorials. Very good.

I like the part where you added a global event listener function I do that for all my codes 😁
the best video on eventlisteners...great video,learned a lot of things.Really helpful ...!Thank you so much..!😄
Great video. After watching your videos you have inspired me to make my own RUclips videos I feel I am finally ready to do so. Thanks
Love the attn to capture events! Can't find it more fully explored anywhere else.
Your channel is a chest of gold for me! Thanks a lot!
What a coincidence i just started learning js a week ago perfect timing man!
Thanks just learning js and exploring front end
function addGlobalListener(type, selector, callback){
document.addEventListener(type, e => {
if(e.target.matches(selector))callback(e)
})
}
Really easy to understand video of events and event listeners in JavaScript. Thank you.
His eyes, hair & content is just🎉🔥
Kyle your an awesome guy. You explain things thoroughly and clearly. Your pacing is perfect and the visuals you use are informative and easy to read. Keep being awesome man.
Hey Kyle just wanted to say thanks for these lovely tutorials
Another workaround would be to add a parent div to those divs and listen for the events on that parent div
Mate, this is the best channel on youtube.
This was great. Kind of spooky at the same time as I've been working on a project at work this last week involving bubbling and how to get the tool tips to only show up for the element I've on, not the parent. Lots of other good info that I plan on using. Thank you very much!

someElement.dispatchEvent(new CustomEvent( 'myEvent', { 'detail': { customValue: "test" } } ) );
someElement.addEventListener( 'myEvent', e => { console.log( e.detail.customValue ) } ); // test
I personally use this in angular projects, when there is a js code in assets folder and I need to perform some actions inside ts code (component) depending on js code
Yes some enterprise applications it will be useful to have custom events based on component data manipulation 💥
Wow! I learnt so many things from this single video.
Thanks to you I clearly understand now how it really works, moreover now to help me to remember this story about capturing and bubbling, I help myself to remember it with the simple analogy with a sandglass x)

8:07 intrusive thoughts took over the typing lol
So clear, pleasant to listen to and to the point. You're a legend, thank you!

You don't suck! You are just still learning.
