const form = document.getElementById('registrar');
const input = form.querySelector('input');
const ul= document.getElementById('invitedList');
form.addEventListener('submit', (e)=>{
e.preventDefault();
const text= input.value;
input.value= '';
const li= document.createElement('li');
li.textContent= text;
const label= document.createElement ('label');
label.textContent= 'confirmed';
const checkbox= document.createElement('input');
checkbox.type= 'checkbox';
label.appendChild(checkbox);
li.appendChild (label);
ul.appendChild(li);
const editButton= document.createElement('button');
editButton.textcontent= 'edit';
li.appendChild(editButton);
const removebutton= document.createElement('button');
removebutton.textcontent= 'remove';
li.appendChild(removebutton);
ul.appendChild(li);
});
ul.addEventListener('change', (e) => {
const checkbox = event.target;
const checked = checkbox.checked;
const listItem = checkbox.parentNode.parentNode;
if(checked){
listItem.className='responded';
} else{
listItem.className= '';
}
});
ul.addEventListener('click', (e)=>{
if (e.target.tagName==='BUTTON' ){
if (e.target.textContent==='remove'){
const li= e.target. parentNode;
const ul= li. parentNode;
ul.removeChild(li);
} else if(e.target.textContent === 'edit'){
console.log('edit');
}
}
});

const editButton= document.createElement('button');
editButton.textContent= 'edit'; // correct textcontent to textContent
li.appendChild(editButton);
had added this as a comment but it should be an answer.sorry for repeat
