}
body {
height: 100vh;
display: flex;
align-items: center;
justify-content: center;
background: #f6f7fb;
}
.container {
position: relative;
height: 420px;

// Select the container and heart elements from the DOM
const container = document.querySelector(".container"),
heart = document.querySelector(".heart");

container.addEventListener("dblclick", (e) => {
// Calculate the x and y position of the double-click event
let xValue = e.clientX - e.target.offsetLeft,
yValue = e.clientY - e.target.offsetTop;
// Set the position of the heart element using the x and y values
heart.style.left = `${xValue}px`;
heart.style.top = `${yValue}px`;
// Add the active class to the heart element to animate it
heart.classList.add("active");
// Remove the active class after 1 second
setTimeout(() => {
heart.classList.remove("active");
}, 1000);
