Get siblings of an element

Written byPhuoc Nguyen

#Get the previous sibling

const prev = ele.previousSibling;

#Get the next sibling

const next = ele.nextSibling;

#Get all siblings

// Get the parent node
const parent = ele.parentNode;

// Filter the children, exclude the element
const siblings = [].slice.call(parent.children).filter(function (child) {
    return child !== ele;
});
