[QUOTE="kolavari, post: 25922037, member: 412792"] Who said jquery has better features than angular or react? you need to clear your head and read my comment first. I use vue, react daily so I too can say learn this and that. But I'm not here to look cool or show "I know everything" :) I suggested Jquery not because it has any special features that a beginner must know, or not because jquery has any specialty over other frameworks. The main reason is that this guy comes from a no-programming background. so if he try to learn something like angular or react, he will surely get fed up and eventually give up. I believe the first step of learning anything is to get the basics right, then build up a mental model. Then when you learn advanced stuff, you can easily map them with the basics because you have the mental model already in place. jquery is a high level abstraction over vanilla js dom manipulation events. The advantage here is that he get to see things working quick enough. So once he learn them, he get to know what he can do with JS and dom. Then I suggested him to learn to do the same without using jquery. That way he knows what's happening behind the scenes and how you would actually do the dom manipulation (while learning js basics) Then once he get a good grasp of these things, he will learn why dom manipulation is quite expensive and why it is not a good idea to create SPA apps using libraries like Jquery. So he will know why frameworks like react, angular and vue exists. He will learn what problems these frameworks solve :) then when he start learning react or similar frameworks, he will learn why they are so good at what they are doing. because he already know how things work behind the scenes. I'm talking about a learning path while you're talking about "Cool stuff to learn", that's the difference. [/QUOTE]
