Is it still necessary to use JQuery in 2023 instead of vanilla js? I always had the impression JQuery was more useful to decouple you from the pain of multi-browser development in the 2000s dark ages of browser standards adoption.
I'm quite happy with Vue, and the Vue HTTP component loader so I don't have to deal with the build process in Python apps. I also quite enjoyed Svelte. I have very little interest in touching the DOM imperatively when a declarative option exists.

I still use it as it’s a decent way to write succinct code to access the DOM.
Makes me laugh that the same devs that claim you should use vanillaJS and that jQuery is bad are the same ones building React sites and using whatever else the latest JS trend is!

I can’t remember the exact use case. We probably could have done it in raw JS, but jQuery made a bunch of things much easier. Since it’s a Chome extension, package size didn’t really matter.
For simple, mostly-static pages, go right ahead. For dynamic pages with a lot of interactions... jQuery doesn't scale so well.

There is no need for jQuery nowadays. That said, it in still convenient. Compare: $(“.submenus”).hide() vs let submenus = document.querySelectorAll(“.submenus”); for (let i = 0; i
