For text → live example:

<div class="element" data-config='{ "type": "text", "limit": 120, "more": "→ show more", "less": "← less" }'>
  Lorem ipsum, dolor ...
  ...
</div>

For list → live example:

<ul class="element" data-config='{ "type": "list", "limit": 5, "element": "li", "more": "↓ show more", "less": "↑ less", "number": true }'>
  <li>item 1</li>
  <li>item 2</li>
  ...
</ul>

For table → live example:

<table class="element" data-config='{ "type": "table", "limit": 4, "more": "↓ show more", "less": "↑ less", "number": true }'>
  ...
</table>

Only show more button → live example:

<div class="element links-style" data-config='{ "type": "list", "limit": 5, "more": "→ show more" }'>
  <a href="#">Administracja biur,</a>
</div>

Only ellipsis → live example:

<div class="element" data-config='{ "type": "text", "limit": 100, "ellipsis": " ..." }'>
  It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking
  at its layout.
</div>

Show the number next to the button → live example:

<ul class="element display-inline" data-config='{ "type": "list", "limit": 3, "element": "li", "more": "→ show more", "less": "← less", "number": true }'>
  <li>Usługi murarskie i tynkarskie,</li>
  ...
</ul>

^ Let's say we have 20 records with text and we determine that the text is to be trimmed after 100 characters in each record, it may happen that in several records the text is very short and has 110 characters, so show more/less will appear after 100 characters and after clicking an additional 10 characters, it will look funny. To prevent this, we add the "after": 50 parameter, which means that the hidden text must be at least 50 characters. Otherwise, show more/less will not appear. The same after can be applied to lists, elements and table records

Number of records counted in the table tr based on all tr of thead, tbody and tfoot

Callback function

document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function() {
  // text, table, list, elelemnts
  new ShowMore('.element', {
    onAction: (type, object) => {
      // type = less/more and full object
      console.log(type, object);
    }
  });
});

The essential JavaScript concepts that you should understand - For successful developing and to pass a work interview

JavaScript data types are kept easy. While JavaScript data types are mostly similar to other programming languages; some of its data types can be unique. Here, we’ll outline the data types of JavaScript.

Introduction With Basic JavaScript - Unlike most programming languages, the JavaScript language has no concept of input or output. It is designed to run as a scripting language in a host environment, and it is up to the host environment to provide mechanisms for communicating with the outside world.

The main goal of this article is help to readers to understand that how memory management system performs in JavaScript. I will use a shorthand such as GC which means Garbage Collection. When the browsers use Javascript, they need any memory location to store objects, functions, and all other things. Let’s deep in dive that how things going to work in GC.
