Anyone who's tried to create a complex interface with evolving context and state with jQuery
I used to work in a large Backbone + jQuery codebase
There were 4 different event buses and the entire app worked by accident
tl;dr:
A few years ago I had to make a quiz web app using jquery and we had to remove all children DOM elements then recreate them whenever the content changed for XSS reasons. That is when I realized React was much easier than jQuery for state management
i wouldn't really compare those two since react is a component library while jQuery is a library that makes DOM management easier
EDIT: language -> library
Why is this even a question? JQuery for what it was in the day was great. However as with every thing days pass, and it fell behind.
There is no way I want to go back to rolling statemanagment and event listener binding and rebinds. It's benefit of easy Dom selection, is with current browser support obsolete.
I loved JQuery way back, buy react is a different thing all together. JQuery has no real place in modern web dev. IMHO.
For large scale apps, React provides the necessary blocks to keep the project manageable.
For small projects and simple homepages; don't matter. Both can be overkill or underdogs.
It's not jQuery.
One less letter. Bytes matter!
Try building an actual app with jQuery and then having the design or requirements change significantly for a v2. In jQuery, this can mean having to rewrite your app entirely.
