Can you explain the comparison to jQuery? I wasn't aware that jQuery was dead.

It's not dead, people have just taken to talking about Angular and React more.

While all the new stuff has value, to me the value of frameworks will always lie in prototypes and small projects, with big production projects needing the flexibility of libraries.

I don't think jQuery will be going anywhere until the DOM itself evolves past a need for it or we evolve past a need for the DOM
