attribs

attribs: {
[name: string]: string;
}

Object mapping attribute names to attribute values.

children

next: null | ChildNode = null

Next sibling

parent

parent: null | ParentNode = null

Parent of the node

prev: null | ChildNode = null

Previous sibling

`Optional`sourceCodeLocation

sourceCodeLocation?: null | TagSourceCodeLocation

parse5 source code location info, with start & end tags.

Available if parsing with parse5 and location info is enabled.
