bluescreen175810yIt winds me up when jquery is referred to like its a language rather than a framework -
IAL3222310y@bluescreen I know that feel
Like when you ask them: what languages do you know?
"Well, PHP, JavaScript, JQuery [...]".
My gosh. -
tytho229610yI just append "mdn" to the end of all web related searches. Gets w3 schools out of the top -
elazar101610y@bluescreen in a way, it is a language. Citing stroustrup, "library design is language design"; and people can successfully use jquery even if they can't program FizzBuzz. -
bluescreen175810y@elazar but it's not a language, JavaScript is the language jQuery is a framework that makes programming in JavaScript easier it's just at a helper library.
JavaScript is the assembly language of the web, and that's a scary thought ..... 😏

This never gets old...
Exactly
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
How many of you used to append this string in an google search? "- jquery"

javascript
