Honestly I feel like jQuery is my "secret weapon" similar to how Lisp is Paul Graham's in Beating the Averages. It's so much more productive than vanilla JS with negligible impact on performance, especially with caching.
- FlyingSnake 4y agoJQuery has better alternatives like Alpine.js or HTMX which are much lighter and easy to use.
- Kiro 4y agoWhat are you doing with jQuery that you can't easily do in vanilla JS? I understand the argument before we had querySelector, but not now.
- francisofascii 4y agoJQuery is terse, which helps with productivity. document.getElementById('id').style.display = 'none' vs $('#id').hide();
