jQuery is a hack of a tool the rest of the Internet is growing AWAY from. If you really want jQuery familiarity, just do a few tutorials, once you get the hang it's self-explanatory.
jQuery is a HACK! The cludgey kind. (One that simplified a hundred things for us over the nearly two decades.) it however doesn't fit in the new world.
Invest your time in a leading or minimalist modern responsive library unless you want to spend the next five years supporting obsolete code. (Try React, vue, etc.)
- illuminant 2y agoAdditional tip: start by learning the things that modern JavaScript does that once made jQuery king. Know that jQuery and JQuery-ui are different animals. Here's how "the pros" use jQuery: - plug in to document ready - selectors - events (though we prefer modern events) - ajax; now use native or axios. - a consistent way everyone jacks their own code into the jQuery convention - the ultimate hack tool for fixing others (and our own) mistakes. It is however a mess over time, devs, and growing demands. Nothing new should be designed depending upon it.
