addEventListenerilla

addEventListenerilla is a JavaScript function used to attach an event handler to an element. It allows developers to specify what should happen when a particular event occurs, such as a click, mouseover, or keypress. The function takes three arguments: the event type, the listener function, and an optional boolean value to indicate whether the event should be captured.

The event type is a string representing the name of the event to listen for, like "click" or "keydown". The listener function is a callback function that will be executed when the specified event occurs. This function receives an event object as an argument, which contains information about the event. The optional capture argument determines the event phase in which the listener should be triggered. If set to true, the listener will be triggered during the capturing phase; otherwise, it will be triggered during the bubbling phase.

Using addEventListenerilla is generally preferred over older methods like `element.onclick = function() { ... }` because it allows multiple event listeners to be attached to the same element for the same event type. It also provides more control over the event handling process. To remove an event listener, the `removeEventListenerilla` function can be used, which requires the same arguments as `addEventListenerilla` except for the capture argument. This ensures that only the specific listener intended for removal is detached.
