New comment by cptrp2101 in "Why I'm still using jQuery in 2019"

I think, as with anything else, it's important we understand the tools we are using. I started with jQuery and the problem was (like many others) I learned it before I actually learned javascript. I've since backtracked and dug into vanilla JS so I can have a better understanding of what my code does.

Since then, I haven't found a situation where I miss jQuery. However, I don't damn anyone who uses it (beyond jokey arguments with the wordpress dev on my team).

It seems like this opinion won't fit in well here, but at this point I find vanilla more than enough for anything where Vue or React will be overkill. However, I'm obviously biased as a front-end app dev and am open to seeing what other people have to say.

I'm not sure what to think about the server side vs. client side comments in the article since that fall outside my area of knowledge.
