append() is preceded by the object to be selected, followed by the element content to be inserted into the object
appendTo() is preceded by the element content to be inserted and is a Jquery object, and followed by the object to be selected
Example:
$('#a').append('content');
$('
content
').appendTo($('#a'));
Note that appendTo must be preceded by a Jquery object.
appendChild(Node) This method generally adds a node after the last child node of the specified element node
But if Node is a DOM object in the page, then it is not adding a node, that is Move node directly.
appendChild can be understood as moving an element. If you want to make a copy of the past, you must clone it in advance
