element.unmount()

Use this method to unmount the Element instance from the DOM, but retain the instance so it can be mounted again. Below states the difference between this method and element.destroy():

  • element.unmount(): Unmounts but does not destroy the Element instance, it only removes it from the page. You can call element.mount() again to mount.
  • element.destroy(): Completely destroys the Element instance, releases resources, and cannot be used again.

Notes:

  • Repeated unmounting: Calling element.unmount() repeatedly will not cause an error, but the second call will have no effect.
  • Automatic unmounting: When element.destroy() is called, element.unmount() is automatically called first.
