title: JS: Extract text from a string without jQuery
body: <p>I have this string:</p>
  
  <pre><code>var string = '&lt;article&gt;&lt;img alt="Ice-cream" src=http://placehold.it/300x300g"&gt;&lt;div style="float: right; width: 50px;"&gt;&lt;p&gt;Lorem Ipsum &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/article&gt;';
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and I am trying to extract the text out of it as such:</p>
  
  <pre><code>var $str = $(string).text();
  console.log($str)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>but since I am concerned about performance due to a huge amount of strings with big text, I would want to go natively.</p>
  
  <p>How is this possible? </p>
