jQuery - DOM Traversing

The jQuery Traversing Methods are used to navigate through the DOM (Document Object Model) and manipulate elements based on their relationships (such as parent, child and sibling) to other elements.

These methods include finding parent elements (parent(), parents()), locating child elements (children()), selecting siblings (siblings()), and navigating to related elements (next(), prev()).
