Event Listeners API:
Song "Listen" (Beyoncé): ♪♫ ♪ ♬
The web page listens for user interactions (clicks, scrolls) and reacts accordingly, mirroring the song's message of paying attention.
Additional Context
Event Listeners are the secret sauce for making web pages interactive. They act like attentive assistants, constantly watching for user actions like clicks, key presses, or mouse movements. When a specific event happens, the Event Listener triggers a pre-programmed function, allowing your web page to react in a meaningful way. This can involve anything from displaying messages, updating content, or triggering animations. Event Listeners are essential for creating engaging user experiences and building dynamic web pages that respond to user input.
