If you try to append an element to an existing HTML document, it might throw a HierarchyRequestError
DOMException
given a <html>
element already exists.
let html = document.createElement("html");
document.append(html);
// HierarchyRequestError: The operation would yield an incorrect node tree.
If you are creating a new document without any existing element, you can append a root HTML element (or a root SVG element):
let doc = new Document();
let html = document.createElement("html");
doc.append(html);
doc.children; // HTMLCollection [<html>]
