No, if you actually make modules with jQuery where it’s creating it’s own DOM tree, it’s no different from what React & Co are doing.
Reasoning about the DOM structure has almost never been an issue in my almost 20 years of professionally doing this junk. The complexity has always been elsewhere.
- alternatex 3y agoAnd you're arguing the complexity that has to be somewhere should go in your custom built jQuery modules instead of components built with a well-known framework? I spent years maintaining front-end code built by devs who believe their way of doing things was better than what's popular in the industry and I disagree about jQuery entirely. jQuery is a low level tool and always ends up biting people as the project grows.
