[15]jQuery 4.0 Released — 20 years on from its original release, the
|
||||
ever-popular ([16]in terms of actual usage) library reaches 4.0 with a
|
||||
migration to ES modules (compatible with modern build tools) along with
|
||||
dropping support for IE 10 and older. With jQuery being a popular guest in our
|
||||
newsletters in the early years, it’s fantastic to see it pop back for a
|
||||
quick visit.

💡 If you're using jQuery, you'll find [17]jQuery Migrate, an official tool to
|
||||
help you upgrade, useful. jQuery in 2026 is a somewhat legacy choice, though,
|
||||
and [18]you might not need jQuery at all..
