Right, but my point was of the difference in disparity between the minimum plugin and minimum usage. To use jQuery is closer to creating a plugin than using wordpress is to creating a plugin.
- code_duck 15y agoIs that what you should be comparing, though? I think there's an impedance mismatch between WordPress and jQuery. WordPress is not seen primarily as a programming tool. 'Using' jQuery could mean visiting a website that employs jQuery which doesn't bring you any closer to writing anything. What we mean is people who program with jQuery, though. The average WordPress user (say, an author or site owner) doesn't do any programming at all. A user who does do programming, like someone who customizes WordPress for people, could write one of these one line plugins. Ultimately it's comparing JavaScript to PHP, and I don't think one is more difficult.
