# Jul 12th 2018, 13:43 josbeir there's a reason why all big js frameworks are not depending on jquery...
# Jul 12th 2018, 13:43 josbeir most 'sane' browsers have good support
# Jul 12th 2018, 13:43 josbeir but we are now 2018
# Jul 12th 2018, 13:42 josbeir yeah @flavius it all depends
# Jul 12th 2018, 13:42 josbeir if i don't have the luxury to invest in a nice js stack i'll just include $ and get going
# Jul 12th 2018, 13:42 flavius and you'll get a user with some random browser that will complain of errors :P
# Jul 12th 2018, 13:41 josbeir it all depends, as i stated before, but if i'm working on a personal project where everthing needs to be _perfect_ i wont pick good 'ol $ anymore
# Jul 12th 2018, 13:41 admad https://code.jquery.com/jquery-3.3.1.slim.min.js is just 68kb. I for one am gonna waste time selecting another lib to maybe say a couple of dozen Kbs more at best
# Jul 12th 2018, 13:39 josbeir but given we now have webpack with babel etc you only include the functions you need
# Jul 12th 2018, 13:39 flavius true, jquery is a library
# Jul 12th 2018, 13:39 josbeir there are enough of those out there
# Jul 12th 2018, 13:39 josbeir nope
# Jul 12th 2018, 13:38 admad "just a simple utility lib with some dom manipulation wrappers is good enough" so you mean making your own poor version of jquery slim? :P
# Jul 12th 2018, 13:38 josbeir jquery is just a wrapper over vanilla js
# Jul 12th 2018, 13:38 josbeir vue, angular, ember are frameworks
# Jul 12th 2018, 13:38 josbeir jquery isnt a framework
# Jul 12th 2018, 13:38 flavius lul, jquery is also a framework
# Jul 12th 2018, 13:38 josbeir thats not a comparison !
# Jul 12th 2018, 13:38 flavius hey, i've got an idea, why use frameworks, just use vanilla instead, screw cakephp :slightly_smiling_face:
# Jul 12th 2018, 13:37 josbeir don't get me wrong, still use it from time to time, but try to do it whitout in a new project, you'll see the benefits
# Jul 12th 2018, 13:36 josbeir and 100kb less :P
# Jul 12th 2018, 13:36 josbeir verbosity is not always a bad thing.
# Jul 12th 2018, 13:36 josbeir just a simple utility lib with some dom manipulation wrappers is good enough
# Jul 12th 2018, 13:36 admad `$('form')` is lot less to type than `document.querySelector('form')` and I am lazy :slightly_smiling_face:
# Jul 12th 2018, 13:36 josbeir its true but now ppl should unlearn jquery...
# Jul 12th 2018, 13:35 itmpls and yeah, they should learn JS
# Jul 12th 2018, 13:35 itmpls but anyway we can't change history
# Jul 12th 2018, 13:35 itmpls the problem is, browsers should've just been more consistent in the beginning otherwise there'd be no jquery
# Jul 12th 2018, 13:34 admad @rogerpro it's an abomination
# Jul 12th 2018, 13:34 josbeir its just lame that, easpecially new developers think that jquery is a language, some havent even heard of javascript, and jquery is still poluting the overall javascript community on the web imo
# Jul 12th 2018, 13:34 rogerpro white chocolate is not chocolate
# Jul 12th 2018, 13:32 josbeir too much metaphors !
# Jul 12th 2018, 13:32 admad chocolate isn't bad, the sugar mixed with it is
# Jul 12th 2018, 13:30 josbeir thats a good reply, hould have tought about that damn @steinkel
# Jul 12th 2018, 13:28 steinkel so true, specially talking about js
# Jul 12th 2018, 13:28 josbeir i got nothing ...
# Jul 12th 2018, 13:28 flavius well, everything in excess is bad for your health :P
# Jul 12th 2018, 13:28 itmpls dark can be good :slightly_smiling_face:
# Jul 12th 2018, 13:28 josbeir chocolate is bad for your health
# Jul 12th 2018, 13:27 flavius i like chocolate better :P
# Jul 12th 2018, 13:25 josbeir its the same thing than @flavius one but in vanilla js
