Check the Browser compatibility table carefully before using this in production.
The sources read-only property of the LayoutShift interface returns an array of LayoutShiftAttribution objects that indicate the DOM elements that moved during the layout shift.

list.getEntries().forEach((entry) => {
entry.sources.forEach((source) => {
console.log(source);
});
