jQuery Description

jQuery is a lightweight and powerful JavaScript library that offers a plethora of features. It simplifies tasks such as manipulating and traversing HTML documents, handling events, creating animations, and making Ajax calls through a user-friendly API that is compatible with various web browsers. For those who are just starting with jQuery, it allows you to return a collection of matched elements that are either retrieved from the DOM using specified criteria or generated by providing an HTML string. Additionally, it is important to note that certain methods of the API have been deprecated in the latest versions of jQuery, affecting how developers interact with DOM attributes of elements. Familiarizing yourself with these changes is essential for effective jQuery usage.

    Outdated but feature-rich JS library

    Date: Jul 28 2022

    Summary: While jQuery was an indispensable library 15 years ago, and is still used in a huge number of websites, it has really fallen behind in terms of features. Many modern full JS web frameworks such as Svelte, Vue, or Backbone are a fraction of jQuery's size and provide many more features, including templating, state management, and routing.

    Positive: - was originally built to save developer time when implementing interactivity on web pages using JS
    - makes it easy to select an element, add or remove classes, etc
    - can handle ajax requests
    - free

    Negative: - vanilla JS has implemented all of the features of jQuery without needing an external library
    - much less features than a true framework, even a light one such as Vue, which is one third jQuery's package size
    - no templating engine
