As this article points out, we're past the point where we need frameworks for small/medium projects. Animation is now handled by CSS3. JavaScript has been updated in all major browsers and now supports bind/each/map/filter right out of the box.
If you're starting now, you can build effectively in JavaScript alone. That said, you may still benefit from a framework if you're doing a very large, long-term project.

- ighost 15y agoYes, Javascript the language is getting better support in browsers, but DOM manipulation without a framework (like jQuery) is still horrible.
- thissitesucks 15y agoThat's completely contrary to what I've experienced. Only browsers that "need" a little extra JS/CSS are the old IE versions. Quotes indicate you don't necessarily need to enhance pages in those browsers at all these days. If your experiences indicate otherwise, you are simply doing something wrong. PS. jQuery is horrible. Every time you think you've figured out all of their undocumented quirks, they change the logic. It's famously inept in IE 6/7.
