Haha! Learning jQuery can still be fun and there might be a lot of applications for that, but I think there are better things to learn these days πŸ˜‰

Ok, and will the "better" things have a dependency on understanding jQuery or just the Javascript basics etc. Is there a generation map you can point me to?

It wouldn't be bad to understand some basic jQuery, since there is a big chance you'll run into it somewhere, but if I were you I'd probably focus on JS and ES (ecmascript) since these are the basics of all other frameworks and compilers.
