  1. Using getElementsByClassName() method:
index.tsx
const elements = document.getElementsByClassName("my-element-class");
// The above code returns an array-like HTMLCollection. You can access individual elements like:
const element = elements[0];

Note: querySelector() method returns the first match, while getElementsByClassName() returns an array-like HTMLCollection.
