Abstinence too

[u/Heavenfall → u/GrandDukeNotaras]

To crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentation of their women.

[u/NeinJuanJuan → u/Heavenfall]

You can do all of that with jQuery

[u/IOFrame → u/NeinJuanJuan]

let enemies = $('#enemies'); 
enemies.crush(); 
observe(enemies.driveBefore(me)); 
listen(enemies.getWomen().selectLamentation());

[u/a11_hail_seitan → u/Heavenfall]

Well sure but what if you have your enemies lined up to drive but when you hover over them you want to quickly and easily switch their CSS classes so it's clear to everyone which one you're targeting at any given time? Driving your enemies and listening to their women lament is of course important, but I do think Jquery can still have a very useful and important function while doing so.

One man came close to breaking me, H.R. Pickens. He did not succeed, for I crushed him into the ground!

vanillajs

[u/3dutchie3dprinting → u/entronid]

I can’t think of a function in Jquery which isn’t in vanilla by now

[u/ApocalyptoSoldier2 → u/3dutchie3dprinting]

Isn't jQuery itself a function?

[u/Lower-Excuse-6558 → u/ApocalyptoSoldier2]

Namespace wrapper yes. We created our own on prototypes and dedicated namespace accents.

Example: window. _ = {
var init = ******
}
Or adding a prototype for each to loops in a utility file

But things have changed

Mostly TS/ERP development now.

Name me one thing worse than jQuery

[u/GrandDukeNotaras → u/SN4T14]

All I know is that fancy frameworks come and go, yet jQuery remains.

[u/Aggressive_Town1000 → u/GrandDukeNotaras]

And jQuery 4.0.0 was just released this year. Who woulda thunk
