jQuery

The library that smoothed over browser differences for a decade of the web. Most of what it offered is now in the browser itself, so it appears here mainly in older codebases.

I used jQuery the first time I worked at UW-Milwaukee, at Starkmedia, and at QM Quality Matters, where I maintained and modernized dashboard interfaces built with it.

  • At Starkmedia, I introduced AngularJS in 2013, and using it alongside jQuery in the same project was not a good idea.
  • That is why I chose Rivets.js at QM Quality Matters: lighter data binding for dashboards that had been built with jQuery.
