New comment by sandGorgon in "Bootstrap 5 will remove jQuery as a dependency"

React lifecycle - the virtual dom breaks down when you are manipulating the dom directly. It can still be done, but it's a bit weird.

Incidentally one of the most interesting react apps that plays super nice with jQuery is the new WordPress editor. I have nothing but respect at how they made it work with the tons of bad js code out there.
