You can also easily create and display the element programatically using the `show` method. The element is appended and removed from the `document.body` automatically.
```js
// create the element
const alert = document.createElement('nebula-alert')
// update any styles
alert.updateStyles({
'--nebula-alert-color': 'white',
'--nebula-alert-background-color': 'black',
'--nebula-alert-border-color': 'silver',
})
// show the element - automatically appended to document.body
alert.show({
title: 'Alert',
icon: 'icons:warning',
text: 'You have been warned',
buttons: ['OK']
}).then(function(result) {
console.log('The alert has been closed', result)
})
```
