I still rather miss it. Sniff...

  I used jQuery in a few personal projects and it was very useful. It was 10 - 15 years ago, so I am sure there are better tools now, but for a hobbyist it was great.

    The syntax still seems much more pleasant for DOM manipulation than vanillaJS. It had a nice pseudo-functional interface and a ton of elegant helpers. Whenever I do DOM manipulation in vanilla I wonder to myself if the API couldn't be a bit more user-friendly and readable.

      I think I'd definitely use some kind of library if I still had to touch the DOM heavily. I liked JQuery, but I like reactive frameworks a lot more.

    For low-level-ish work (like DOM manipulation) there are still no better tools than jQuery
