I'm at the point of applying vanilla JS to exercise projects after a few months of learning and I'm happy that when I started some friends told me to stick to vanilla before any framework, and of course I listened to their advice.
The only thing that's catching my eye at this point is Jquery, because I saw some easy solutions in Jquery vs vanilla JS.
But, until I'll have a good grasp and understanding of how and what can I use in order to finish my projects with JS, I won't move to any framework because I firmly believe that we need to crawl before walking or running.
These days, almost nothing is easier in jQuery unless you're targetting older browsers. Many "jQuery vs. Vanilla" examples specifically use very old APIs that are even less relevant now than however many years ago those comparisons were made.

Thanks for the tip. 👌
You're taking the right approach! A framework can only make something "easier", but you need to know what is "hard" first.
