When better to start study jQuery ?

Question

Hi coders!
How do you think, what level of pure javascript needed to start learning jQuery.
I already use javascript with DOM and now learning objects and arrows.
Also have practice with HTML and CSS.
So what base in JS needed to start jQuery ?

Answer 1

My advice to you is that you should never totally rely on jQuery in all your projects. You might forget the main code needed for the operation which you have employed jQuery for. So, get very comfortable with the main code, before diving into jQuery, and make sure you have an understanding of what jQuery functions do underneath. When you need reusable code, either write your own abstraction or study what some libraries do and abstract the parts you need (do not blatantly copy them).

Answer 2

Go for it. Sounds like you're ready. A decent understanding of HTML, CSS, Javascript and the DOM is really all that is needed.
