Interesting that the JQuery creator moved on eh? Of course, the history of software has always been about the "next great thing" hasn't it? Anybody remember APL now?

I enjoyed your article, and responded only because I am still a big fan of JQuery.

I enjoy using JQuery as well. I am pretty sure every single programing language out there gets a bad wrap by someone else. Don't listen to the trolls .... do what makes you happy and gets the job done!

The reason for using jquery on sites is very simple "All css frameworks don't have libs for every js framework or lib but jquery", so to me, it doesn't make sense to have jQuery in an angular app just because i want a modal from bootstrap and other beauties from angular. In that case I would rather stick to using jQuery and jQuery alone.
