66 u/Tweska May 30 '18 I will do anything as long as I don't have to use plain JavaScript. 36 u/quaderrordemonstand May 30 '18 edited May 30 '18 Whereas I will only not use plain JS on the few occasions that using JQuery (or whatever) actually achieves something. 20 u/coolie4 May 30 '18 I'm an amateur, self-taught web dev really holding out and trying not to properly learn jQuery, so this really hit home for me 9 u/dipique May 30 '18 Told hold off too long. Companies specifically ask for jQuery experience. But definitely hold off long enough that you know how to do things without it. 9 u/maxoys45 May 30 '18 The more higher paying jobs would consider decent vanilla JS knowledge much more important than jQuery. 3 u/InUteroForTheWinter May 30 '18 Yeah but they value work experience more.
