Speaking of gamedev and jQuery, I work at a company where we basically make games for education purposes, for high profile universities, mostly. The games are all web applications, and we've learned to bend React in each and every direction to best serve our uncommon use case. A few months ago we needed some extra firepower, and offloaded a project to a small team of external consultants. I'm still shocked by what they shipped: the smoothest and juiciest web game I've ever seen, made with the messiest and most ancient clusterf€#k of jQuery I've ever witnessed in existence. The moral of the story to me is: no matter how cool your new shiny tool is, old, battle-tested tools have generated generations of wizards which, given the right scenario, can still bring magic to the table.
