let body = element.GetBody(); 
let wind = element.GetWindow();

let heading = element5.Create("h2#heading");

When you create a DOM element, it saved on a variable, but it is not visible on your document yet.

  deviceOption: "", 
  deviceType: "screen", 
  features: ["max-width:375px"], 
  producted: false
});

$.extends({
  say: function(msg)

    console.log(msg)
  }
