Script Preparation code:

const section = document.getElementById("section");

section.style.setProperty('--translation', '100');
section.style.setProperty('--translationPx', '100px');
section.style.setProperty('--translationPercentage', '100%');

    newDiv.appendChild(text);
    section.appendChild(newDiv);
}

var nodes = document.querySelectorAll("div");
