How to loop over DOM elements from querySelectorAll
TL;DR: Use the for..of loop
The querySelectorAll() method run on document returns a list of DOM elements that satisfy the selectors query.
It returns a list of elements, which is not an array but a NodeList object.
The easiest way to loop over the results is to use the for..of loop:
for (const item of document.querySelectorAll('.buttons')) {
//...do something
}
