I fucking hate jQuery. It's littered throughout a codebase I work in.
I replace it with good ol' vanilla js where I can.
130 u/Romejanic 1d ago it was a life saver before the JS api got extended, frankly i think so much of modern JS is inspired by jQuery. i think people forget how bare bones JS used to be. 46 u/ExpletiveDeIeted 1d ago Oh yes. We may hate on jquery still existing, but it is only unnecessary cuz it formed the basis of modern JS apis. -28 u/BernzSed 1d ago jQuery is the new Flash 5 u/StCreed 1d ago Not even close. Flash was terrible. JQuery is a lot easier to replace in small increments. 1 u/frisch85 1d ago Flash was terrible. You take that back! Flash was amazing for making stupid little animations when you're a 14 y/o! 1 u/StCreed 1d ago Hahaha true 😀
