The Element.classList is a read-only property that returns a live DOMTokenList collection of the class attributes of the element. This can then be used to manipulate the class list. 
  Using classList is a convenient alternative to accessing an element's list of classes as a space-delimited string via element.className. 
 
 A DOMTokenList representing the contents of the element's class attribute. If the class attribute is not set or empty, it returns an empty DOMTokenList, i.e. a DOMTokenList with the length property equal to 0. 
 Although the classList property itself is read-only, you can modify its associated DOMTokenList using the add(), remove(), replace(), and toggle() methods.
 You can test whether the element contains a given class using the classList.contains() method.
 
const div = document.createElement("div");
div.className = "foo";
console.log(div.outerHTML);
div.classList.remove("foo");
div.classList.add("anotherclass");
console.log(div.outerHTML);
div.classList.toggle("visible");
div.classList.toggle("visible", i < 10);
console.log(div.classList.contains("foo"));
div.classList.add("foo", "bar", "baz");
div.classList.remove("foo", "bar", "baz");
const cls = ["foo", "bar"];
div.classList.add(...cls);
div.classList.remove(...cls);
div.classList.replace("foo", "bar");
