Raw
event-emitter.js
// Who needs eventemitter3, mitt, or some other library when you can use native DOM APIs? 😁
let eventEmitter = new EventTarget();
eventEmitter.addEventListener('test', console.log); // CustomEvent { type: 'test', detail: 123, ... }
eventEmitter.dispatchEvent(new CustomEvent('test', { detail: 123 }));
