DOM (Document Object Model)

The Document Object Model (DOM) is a standardized way for web browsers to represent and interact with the structure of a webpage. It turns HTML elements into a tree-like structure of objects, enabling developers to access, modify, or add content dynamically using programming languages like JavaScript. In essence, the DOM acts as a bridge between the webpage's code and what you see on the screen, allowing for interactive and responsive websites. It provides a consistent interface, so developers can manipulate page content regardless of the browser being used.
