Sometimes, we want to retrieve the position (X,Y) of an HTML element with JavaScript.

const { top, right, bottom, left } = element.getBoundingClientRect();
console.log(top, right, bottom, left); to call the element.getBoundingClientRect method to return the position of the element. We get the top, right, bottom, and left position from the object returned.
