How to remove an element from the DOM with vanilla JS

The Node.remove() method lets you remove an element from the DOM. Call it on the element you want to remove.

For example, let’s say you had a heading and paragraph, like this.

<h1>Hello, world!</h1>
<p>How are you today?</p>

let h1 = document.querySelector('h1');
h1.remove();
