- madduci 3y agoHow many of them are WordPress installations or sites running Bootstrap?
- redder23 3y agoModern WordPress themes do not use jQuery on the front-end. Bootstrap does not require jQuery. Not sure if ever but not since 3.0 and were are at 5.0 at this point.
- Waterluvian 3y agoThat’s a shocking number. I wonder how much of that is just duplicated instances of some standard template, Wordpress, whatnot.
- not_your_vase 3y agoChances are you have "ed" installed on your currently used machine, but I doubt it was ever opened. With that said, I'm quite surprised that jQuery is not abandoned, barely heard about it in the past decade or so. I suspect also that it is mostly part of boilerplate coming from other libraries and frameworks, and rarely intentional.
