Event Bubbling

Event bubbling is a process in web development where an event, like a click, starts at the most specific element you interacted with and then gradually moves up to its parent elements. Imagine clicking a button inside a box: the event first triggers on the button, then bubbles up to the button’s container, then to the container’s parent, and so on. This allows multiple elements in a page to respond to a single action, often enabling more efficient event handling by capturing actions at higher levels in the structure.
