javascript - Are addListener and addEventListener the same? Can I use them interchangeably?

Question

Started to learn Node.js, it seems like sometimes addListener is used and sometimes addEventListener, are they completely same? Can I use any at any time?

Answer 1

No they aren't, and no, you can't.

What methods an API makes available will depend on the particular API.

I'm not aware of any that support addListener as an alias for addEventListener or vice versa.
