Actually jQuery or is it not framework anymore?
- ahoge 13y agojQuery is a library for things like DOM manipulation, AJAX, animation, and events. Ember and Backbone depend on jQuery, for example.
- shangxiao 13y agoAgreed, jQuery is more of a toolkit that complements frameworks
- wwweston 13y agoIt never was a framework; it was a better API for the DOM + some various other browser APIs -- so much better, in fact, you can get a near-framework-like productivity boost using it. (At least at first, before it starts to matter that it's no help in terms of organizing a larger application. :)
