People will just have to get use to being offended then. The real worlds offensive and if someone thinks "fellas" is offensive then their in for alot of emotional scaling, especially in the dev world! As far as Jquery, you should definitely not leave it behind. Not every job is a component and for that matter a hierarchy based job. Unless your consistently making apps with very expected structures, you will come across needs for a stack that appropriates jQuery. In my case, a cigar app with a database lookup that drops down from the header bar and allows the user to drag cigars from the header dropdown into a Virtual humidor. Yes this could.. be done with a component based framework but if i got specific about its needs, you would quickly see that oh man react wont handle this well, angular wont handle this well, polymer sure as heck won handle this well. JQuery allows for an extreme amount of detailed and global DOM changes. if your app has that demand, youll need it
Yo! I'm Adam. I'm a web developer based in London, UK and I'm open for messages and questions about work or code or anything really.
P.s I'm the one with the beard in my profile pic ✌🏻🐵
Yeah, I still use jQuery and see the benefits but most uses I had for it I now do with vanilla javaScript, which I'd say has made me a better developer. JQuery is still super handy though and I use it on a lot of things not React related.
Tough skin is definitely a necessity in most industries. As I said, I wasn't offended and my thoughts would have been similar. I literally mentioned the 'fellas' thing to try and stop John getting heat from (maybe overly) sensitive people as it's something I keep seeing happen online.
