Equivalent of DOMNodeInserted DOMNodeRemoved with MutationObserver?

I currently have the code:

$('.example').bind('DOMNodeInserted DOMNodeRemoved', function(event) {
    ....
});

Which works perfectly but it is not very efficient and has since deprecated. What is a better way to do this?

I have been looking into MutationObserver but this code does work?

It is giving the error "mutation.addedNodes is not a function" I would also need the removedNodes I realise.

var observer = new MutationObserver(function(mutations) {
      mutations.forEach(function(mutation) {
        mutation.addedNodes.forEach(function(node) {
          if (node.className == 'example') {
              ....
          }
        });
      });
    });
    observer.observe(document, {
      childList: true,
      subtree: true,
      attributes: false,
      characterData: false,
    });

.addedNodes returns a NodeList not an Array , that does not have .forEach() method. Try using Array.prototype.slice() to cast .addedNodes to an Array which has method .forEach()

var observer = new MutationObserver(function(mutations) {
      mutations.forEach(function(mutation) {
        var nodes = Array.prototype.slice.call(mutation.addedNodes);
        nodes.forEach(function(node) {
          if (node.parentElement.className == "example") {
              alert(node.parentElement.className)
          }
        });
      });
    });
    observer.observe(document.querySelector(".example"), {
      childList: true,
      subtree: true,
      attributes: false,
      characterData: false,
    });

var el = document.createElement("div");
el.className = "example-child";
document.querySelector(".example").appendChild(el)

<div class="example"></div>
