In what cases? What were the advantages of jQuery and are they still important?This course focuses on the newest JavaScript and browsers mechanisms, which can replace jQuery:classList, querySelector, forEach, dataset, URLSearchParams, fetch, Promise, spread operatorIt also shows additional features and tools, which can help even together with jQuery, e.g. async/await or Animate.css.There are well-known examples of the companies removing jQuery from their front-end parts. GitLab and GitHub to name a few. Moreover, the latter one switched from jQuery to Web Components, which are explained in detail in one of the course sections.At the end of the course, you can find a solution for one of the biggest front-end problems - how to achieve a fully cross-browser solution and old browsers support (yes, including IE8). It's doable thanks to polyfills and Babel or TypeScript. And the example project is well-explained in the course.
