I have an element that already has a class:
Sample with pure JS. In first example we get our element's id and add e.g. 2 classes.
document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function() {
document.getElementsById('tabGroup').className = "anyClass1 anyClass2";
})
In second example we get element's class name and add 1 more.
document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function() {
document.getElementsByClassName('tabGroup')[0].className = "tabGroup ready";
})
