As a backend developer this could equally be real front end stuff or satire to take the piss out of it. To me the entire DOM stuff is as understandable as magical lore anyway.
Thank you for not shitting on frontend. Have a wonderful day
It wasn't meant as shitting on front end. I love a good gui. I just don't understand half of the things you guys work with.
I work mostly with business logic. Integtations, APIs and process automation etc. GUI stuff is quite far from my day to day so I don't have any incentives to learn at work either.
It is very much real: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Glossary/Shadow_tree
Everyone knows you just keep guessing until you get it right.
Don't worry about how janky or slow it makes the UI. That's basically a requirement for the modern browser.
The Shadow Dom just means pseudo elements. Obviously they have to exist somewhere so they exist in the shadow Dom but it's pretty easy to access you basically just do it just like you would any other Dom node.
I haven't touched any front end code since I was a junior about 15 years ago. My CS degree didn't involve any more gui than simple stuff, so I was very overwhelmed by it. I ended up focusing on database work and business processes instead.
The way the DOM and shadow DOM is described now seems logical, so I guess I shouldn't have too much issue wrapping my brain around the concepts should I end up needing it in the furure. But I am very fond of where I am working purely with business logic and leaving the graphics to other people.
That made me think it'd look good as a card:
Be aware, there are ways to use the dark arcane magic of the shadow trees and you can even attach shadow to a

Imma need to get an Elden Ring theory off my chest.
You remember that one fight against the two omens on the bridge to the divine tower, where suddenly everything goes black?
THAT FIGHT IS INSIDE THE VEIL.
Which veil? Shadow land veil?
But yeah this fight is so... Out of place? I mean those are just two Standarte omens as a boss fight? And no other boss does something like the port to black.
Always thought there must be more to it.
Also is there an active elden ring lore community on Lemmy?
Yep, I'm 99% sure that they are somehow pulling us into the veil that separates TLB from TSL. Maybe they are stuck there?
It would be one thing if it were just some random enemies, but it's specifically Omen, and I'm pretty sure the location lines up well with where the veil should be. Miquella needed Mohg's Omen blood to cross into TSL (and to allow his followers to cross). That can't be a coincidence!
Sadly doesn't seem like such a community exists yet. I'd love one, but I'm bad at promoting that stuff (see my Invincible community). If you'd like to participate, I'll gladly open one up!
I opened the community up if you're interested: !eldenringlore@lemmy.world
ive only played a few hours of eldin ring what the hell is a shadow tree or Dom node?
Web development / front-end development joke: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Document_Object_Model
Web components suck
Can I hide from the trump administration in the shadow dom?
