Beautiful use of modern JS development techniques: client-side rendering, isomorphic JavaScript and smaller more-efficient libraries.
Even better to see these techniques applied appropriately, instead of slathered on to the point of being detrimental.
Also, +1 for using jQuery and being proud of it! :)
- dikaiosune 11y agoIt reads like jQuery was part of the server-rendered Java stack, and there's no mention of it in their Node/React stack. I use jQuery and am proud of it, but it looks like that may no longer be the case at Netflix?

- ProCynic 11y agoOn the other hand, don't be ashamed of using a tool that works for the job, even if it isn't the latest or coolest thing. jQuery is no longer the best choice for a lot or circumstances, but if it is for yours, go for it.
