What is the main difference between event delegation to other event handling patterns in JavaScript?
I define a software event as any state of a program to which we can probably respond.
In JavaScript, how does event delegation differs from more simple and probably more common event handling patterns such as:
window.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', () => {} );window.addEventListener('load', () => {} );
The terminology of event delegation is significantly more complex than of these and I hope to get an answer from which it will be clear to me what is the main reason that makes it more complex so to need terms such as delegation/propagation/bubbling, etc.
