I am currently creating my own toastr service as seen in the GIF below

---

---

The issue Whenever I click the CTA button I add a toast element to an array of toasts which the component is subscribed to and utilizes to update the DOM.

The toasts are generated like this:

export class ToastComponent implements OnInit {
  constructor(private toast: ToastService, protected elementRef: ElementRef) {}

  toasts = this.toast.Toasts;

---

  <div
    class="toast-wrapper wobble-animation"
    *ngFor="let t of toasts.value"
    (click)="DestroyToast(t, $event)"

---

What I want I want to add an eventlistener to the toast whenever 'animationend' to destroy the HTML element. I already do this by when clicking with this line of code:

       DestroyToast(element, event): void {
        event.target.classList.remove('wobble-animation');
        event.target.classList.add('slide-out-animation');
        event.target.addEventListener('animationend', () => {
          this.toasts.value.splice(this.toasts.value.indexOf(element), 1);
        });
      }

My initial thought was to subscribe to the array and use that as an eventlistener for when something is pushed. I would then use a function to fetch the latest toast and add another eventlistener, the 'animationend' one.

I tried the method like this:

  ngOnInit(): void {
      this.toast.Toasts.subscribe((args) => {
      this.UpdateToasts();
     });
  }
  UpdateToasts() {
    let toastElements = document.querySelectorAll('.toast');
    console.log(toastElements);
  }

But unfortunately it is too slow and always returns null on the first event.

I think that I have read that using querySelector in angular is generally bad practice. So the question is:

How to get a dynamically generated element in Angular without querySelector?
