  1. Identify the elements to which the events need to be attached.
  2. Use selectors to identify the elements to which the event listeners need to be attached.
  3. Create a function that will handle the event. This function will contain the code that will be executed when the event is triggered.
  4. Attach the event listener to the element using the 'addEventListener' method. The method takes in two arguments - the event type and the event handler function.
  5. Within the event handler function, you can perform actions such as manipulating the DOM, making network requests, or updating variables.
  6. Remove the event listener when it is no longer needed, using the 'removeEventListener' method.

Example implementation:

// Selecting an element and adding a click event listener

const button = document.querySelector('#myButton');

function handleClick() {
  console.log('Button has been clicked');
}

button.addEventListener('click', handleClick);


// Removing a click event listener
button.removeEventListener('click', handleClick);
