Will jQuery still count like JS or?

jquery is javascript. it has method chains and callbacks.

$("selector").on("hover",()=>{
doSomething();
});

Depends on the requirements of the job. There is no way to answer this.

Hi Aurelian,

Little late to post here, most places use jQuery from my understanding. However, I don't think it's a bad idea to learn JavaScript. Most places would want you to know JavaScript so you can solve problems, it's great to know jQuery but you'll need to understand the basics of JavaScript to fully break problems down. Here's a good resource to use only pure js. You'll learn a lot through this and it's free. https://javascript30.com/

Happy coding! PHP is a good language to know as well!

To best honest jquery is easier than javascript stand alone, but teamtreehouse has courses that teaches dom manipulation javascript. Which is faster than jquery. Vanilla will also be faster.

jquery just makes small applications very easy to do.

You have to know those two before you proceed to reactjs. Plus, you have to have strong understand of javascript, oop, and some functional programming.

For the amount of jquery you have to know.

$.ajax

• GET
• POST
• PUT
• DELETE

That's with any Saas or REST API app. For a basic application.

For like full fledge you would need frontend framework like angular or ember or reactjs with other libraries for example you would use angular for connect the $http GET and POST. It's to wire them up.

So basically you would use frontend frameworks for logins and form validations. You also have to do form validations in the back too. If not your app will crash.
