Introduction

AstElement is the parent class of non-text nodes. It is modeled after the HTMLElement class, and has properties and methods very similar to the HTMLElement class. This class inherits all the properties and methods of the AstNode class which are not repeated here.

✅ Available in the Mini and Browser versions.
