or <p>
tag element resizable when clicked using pure JavaScript, not the jQuery library or any other library.
This question is related to

Achieving functionalities fully requires a lot of hard coding. Please refer to the documentation, it will show you how to use each class as element.
what about a pure css3 solution?
div {
resize: both;
overflow: auto;
}
mousemove
event in vanilla jsadd the mousemove
to your target
listen to the target move
event
get the pointer position, resize your target
const div = document.querySelector(`div.before`);
const box = document.querySelector(`div.container`);
box.addEventListener(`mousemove`, (e) => {

Basically, here is the class that does this.
let getPropertyValue = function(style, prop) {
let value = style.getPropertyValue(prop);
value = value ? value.replace(/[^0-9.]/g, '') : '0';
return parseFloat(value);
}
let getElementRect = function(element) {
let style = window.getComputedStyle(element, null);
return {
x: getPropertyValue(style, 'left'),
y: getPropertyValue(style, 'top'),
width: getPropertyValue(style, 'width'),
height: getPropertyValue(style, 'height')
}
}

Is simple:
Example:https://jsfiddle.net/RainStudios/mw786v1w/
var element = document.getElementById('element');
//create box in bottom-left
var resizer = document.createElement('div');
resizer.style.width = '10px';
resizer.style.height = '10px';
resizer.style.background = 'red';
resizer.style.position = 'absolute';
resizer.style.right = 0;
resizer.style.bottom = 0;
resizer.style.cursor = 'se-resize';
//Append Child to Element
element.appendChild(resizer);
//box function onmousemove
resizer.addEventListener('mousedown', initResize, false);
//Window funtion mousemove & mouseup
function initResize(e) {
window.addEventListener('mousemove', Resize, false);
window.addEventListener('mouseup', stopResize, false);
}
//resize the element
function Resize(e) {
element.style.width = (e.clientX - element.offsetLeft) + 'px';
element.style.height = (e.clientY - element.offsetTop) + 'px';
}
//on mouseup remove windows functions mousemove & mouseup
function stopResize(e) {
window.removeEventListener('mousemove', Resize, false);
window.removeEventListener('mouseup', stopResize, false);
}
There are very good examples here to start trying with, but all of them are based on adding some extra or external element like a "div" as a reference element to drag it, and calculate the new dimensions or position of the original element.
Here's an example that doesn't use any extra elements. We could add borders, padding or margin without affecting its operation. In this example we have not added color, nor any visual reference to the borders nor to the lower right corner as a clue where you can enlarge or reduce dimensions, but using the cursor around the resizable elements the clues appears!
let resizerForCenter = new Resizer('center')
resizerForCenter.initResizer()
See it in action with CodeSandbox:
