It's a lot more verbose and less powerful. I mean, the http://youmightnotneedjquery.com http://youmightnotneedjquery.com site reads like a parody even in 2021.

- michaelpb 6y agoI guess it truly does come down to preference and perception, as looking over that link you provided I actually had the opposite reaction! I prefer the DOM API in each example, save for examples that are clearly out of date to support old versions of IE without a polyfill (e.g. all the AJAX examples at the top can use fetch, other can use Object.assign, no use of the iterator interface anywhere, etc)
- tambourine_man 6y agoThis is something I really can't fathom. It takes twice as much typing without the chainable, unix pipe like API. I really don't get it, but I've been baffled by this industry's decision for more than a decade.
