Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Use event delegation for dynamic content Adding hundreds of individual event listeners for list items or table rows consumes significant memory and creates performance overhead. Dynamic content (items loaded via AJAX or rendered after user actions) won't have event listeners unless you re-attach them after each update — event delegation solves both problems at once. ## Quick Reference - Attach one listener to a parent instead of many to individual children - Use event.target.closest() to identify the intended target element - Event delegation automatically works for elements added dynamically - Clean up listeners on the parent when the container is removed ## Check Find any code in this file that attaches the same event handler to multiple elements in a loop. Suggest event delegation as an alternative. ## Fix Refactor these per-element event listeners to use event delegation on the common parent container. ## Explain Explain event delegation, how event bubbling enables it, and when to use closest() vs target. ## Code Review …

How to install
mdr add thedaviddias/front-end-checklist/event-delegation@sha256:3ce1cf4fe8065181The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261004.4b0ddb9, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
