Browser events
We can listen for any kind of event using JavaScript, including browser-initiated events, or user-initiated events.

JavaScript in the browser uses an event-driven programming model.

A web page is loaded, and nothing happens until the user does something.

It could be clicking a button, or focusing on an input box and starting typing. Or submitting a form.

When this kind of interactivity happens, you can “hook” in the workflow using JavaScript.

Things start by responding to an event with an event handler.
