You can use the direct child selector (>) to only select the immediate children of an element. For example, if you want to select all the

elements inside a

element without selecting any nested
elements, you can use the following code:

const listItems = document.querySelectorAll("ul > li");

This will only select the

• elements that are direct children of
  elements and not any nested
  elements.
