Say you want to fetch the value of a CSS property in a web page, one that is set using a stylesheet.
The style property of an element does not return it, because it only lists CSS properties defined in inline styles, or dynamically.

const element = document.querySelector('.my-element')
const style = getComputedStyle(element)
style.backgroundColor //the RGB value
