jQuery is a popular JavaScript library that simplifies web development by providing a wide range of pre-built functions and utilities. It is often used to enhance the interactivity and user experience of websites.
While jQuery is not a web design technology per se, it is commonly utilized in web design and development to manipulate the HTML document, handle events, create animations, and perform AJAX (Asynchronous JavaScript and XML) requests.
jQuery simplifies the process of selecting and manipulating HTML elements in the Document Object Model (DOM). It provides a concise syntax for traversing and modifying the structure and content of a web page, such as adding or removing elements, changing styles, or updating text.
jQuery has a vast ecosystem of plugins and user interface (UI) components that can be easily integrated into web projects. These plugins offer additional functionality, such as image sliders, form validation, date pickers, tooltips, and more. They enable developers to extend the capabilities of a website without having to build everything from scratch.
