how to use the iselement function from the underscore library in typescript

To use the isElement function from the Underscore library in TypeScript, we first need to install the Underscore library and its type definitions using npm:

index.ts
npm install underscore @types/underscore
41 chars
2 lines

Once installed, we can import the isElement function and use it as follows:

index.ts
import * as _ from 'underscore';

const myElement = document.createElement('div');
const isMyElement = _.isElement(myElement);

console.log(isMyElement); // true

7 lines

In the above code, we imported the entire Underscore library as _, created a DOM element using document.createElement, and then used the isElement function to check if the element we created is a valid DOM element. The function returns a boolean value indicating whether the provided object is a DOM element or not.
