You don't even need jquery. jquery was created to abstract away some subtle browser differences that no longer exist. It's quite straightforward to write raw javascript and dom calls, using caniuse as a reference for what is widely standardized.
- logicalmonster 4y agoYou are technically correct that you don't truly need jQuery to build sites today. That said, there's still useful jQuery libraries and example code out there, and it's still a good experience to figure out the basics, if only as an exercise to figure out how one library works. If OP is trying to get a first web-developer job, there's fairly good chance that they'll encounter some legacy systems that use it for a first job. If this is anywhere near accurate, the usage today is still surprisingly widespread. https://trends.builtwith.com/javascript/jQuery https://trends.builtwith.com/javascript/jQuery
