orb.destroy();

Web Component Events

const orb = document.querySelector('floating-orb');

// Fired when orb is ready
orb.addEventListener('orb-ready', () => {
  console.log('Orb initialized!');
});

// Fired when orb is destroyed
orb.addEventListener('orb-destroyed', () => {
  console.log('Orb cleaned up!');
});
