Well, there are so many sites which uses jQuery. Most of us are very much
familiar that jQuery was very popular between 2007-2012, although its still
using in many website across the internet. Below I am going to tell you what is
very beneficial for using jQuery and why we should not use it.
Pros of using jQuery:
- It provides very handy commands for direct manipulation of DOM structure.
- You can easily change any style, attribute, elements, etc. with the help of
desired selectors.
- There are couple of plugins availabe which basically works
together with jQuery like: sliders, form validations, animation effects, and
many more.
Cons of using jQuery:
- It only modifies DOM from interaction point of view and doesn't change the
code. It means it will not effect any changes for the actual running code and at
the time of refresh page your changes might be lost.
- You cannot generate
dynamic code with jQuery, meaning You cannot run dynamic loops and properties
based on programming languages, but that can be achievable via
Angular/Reactjs/Vuejs/Next.js etc.
- Also, you don't need to consider your jQuery changes to be available in Search Engine crawling, because jQuery or javascript modifications/renderings will be completely ignored by Crawlers.
