I hope this helps..

Answer 2

using jQuery doesn't implies to not use vanilla JS... as jQuery is just a JS framework (a collection of tools written in JS).

however, the link provided by $hardul B should have answered your question... if not, feel free to ask for explanation without giving you links ^^

Answer 3

$hardul B I didn't said the converse, and I even upvoted your answer... I just said that using jQuery doesn't require to rewritte vanilla JS code ;P

anyway, I agree with OP that it doesn't worst to use jQuery only for one thing (I even think that nowadays jQuery doesn't worst to be used at all...)

Answer 4

$hardul B no problem: that would have clarifying my words for other too ;)
