Courses Plus Student 4,260 PointsMy solution beforehand adding the remove fn to the attached buttons
Although it's great to know that I can manipulate the children through bubbling, I added remove.addEventListener('click', () => {list.removeChild(li);} )
inside the attach fn instead for simpler readability.
// fn to add del button to every item on the list
const AddDelButton = (li) => {
let remove = document.createElement('button');
remove.addEventListener('click', () => {list.removeChild(li);} ) // this
remove.className = 'remove';
remove.textContent = 'Remove';
li.appendChild(remove);
}

Plus, once you get more accustomed to using them, delegated handlers won't seem any more complicated than individual ones when reading the code.
