Well, that's what I'm saying... right now, making it represent an open browser tab with a specific state and where everything DOES something isn't declarative. But it could be declarative if you changed how those commands are implemented.

Or, to phrase it another way: if the program represents a PLAN then it's declarative. If it represents a series of things to DO then it's imperative. It seems like it's doing things, but it could plan things with the same syntax.

Oh yes. The reason if this is that for now the language itself is DOM agnostic, it's just a port of an existing one. (https://docs.arangodb.com/3.4/AQL/) . So, the entire DOM thing is implemented by standard library which is pluggable. In the future, I might extend the language to make it less DOM agnostic by introducing new keywords for dealing with that. But for now you have to move document object around. Which is not that bad, because you may open as many page as you want in a single query.
