With vanilla JS becoming capable and compatible enough ~15 years ago, I thought jquery was dead. I've never seen it mentioned among the alphabet soup we call web development job postings, ever.
Still used at my workplace, along with bunch of plugins; FancyTree, contextMenu, Multi-Language, DataTables, blockUI...the list goes on. Throwing jQuery out would be painful.
Agreed. Some of my projects use jQuery because standard JS is just… terrible to use for some usecases, though this was before I switched to (e)UXP, so speed would’ve taken a minor hit.
