Widely available
This feature is well established and works across many devices and browser versions. It’s been available across browsers since March 2016.

returns the last child of the node, or null if there are no child nodes.
Note:
This property returns any type of node that is the last child of this one.
It may be a Text or a Comment node.
If you want to get the last Element that is a child of another element,
consider using Element.lastElementChild.
