Jquery is just shorthand, really – unless things have changed in the last decade (which doesn’t seem likely in the world of technology! /s), jquery is basically a way to stop writing document. GetElementById() and element.classList.add() over and over.
Don’t get me wrong, that shorthand was a valuable and unique addition to a tool set – jQuery code was much easier to read and maintain than vanilla js, for sure. But I feel like now that websites usually have build steps, using jQuery involves a lot more effort than just not using it, that, with its kind of naive approach to DOM manipulation, is where the hate comes from, imo. It’s probably still a great choice in a traditional LAMP stack build.
