1-> jQuery is a library that makes it quicker and easier to build JavaScript webpages and web apps. Often with jQuery you can write a single line of code to achieve what would have taken 10-20 lines of regular JavaScript code.
2-> With jQuery you can write powerful JavaScript apps using fewer lines of code. * jQuery is great for things like animations, Ajax requests, DOM manipulation, image effects, and user interface elements.
3-> at the time of writing the uncompressed version is handy to use but when the program is placed at the webserver the minified version is best to use online

  1. jQuery is a library with many predefined functions for (and written in) JavaScript.
  2. It can be used to change the appearance of your website, make us of forms and generally spoken let the site be more interactive.
  3. There are two versions because we should know what every function is doing. That is commented in the uncompressed version which should be used when producing the website and the minified version should be used for the final website because it is a lot smaller in size and therefore can be loaded much more quickly.

    Ans: So we can pick one depending on what we need. The Minified.js file is the version youā€™ll want to place on your site, as itā€™s much quicker for visitors to download. It has all comments, whitespace, and other unnecessary characters removed from the file, squeezing the whole library into a mere 23kb.

  1. JQuery is a javascript library that makes it easier to build javascript websites and apps. It is essentially a library of prewritten codes that can be placed in your own program. Lego blocks
  2. It allows us to shorten the programming process. you can use one line of code to write something that would take 10-20 lines of actual javascript to write on your own.
  3. Uncrompressed is easier to read, but it is a larger file. you can use the uncrompressed to find the function id of the program you need and then use the minified to reference the function in your actual program. minified removes all unnecessary components and comments. this is the file that should be referenced in programming to allow for faster load times.

  1. JQuery is a JS library that includes a lot of reusable code. Instead of writing all these functions yourself, this simplifies the process of building your JS webpage/webapps.

  2. Instead of reinventing the wheel and writing all the functions yourself, you can just import this library and utilize the functions written by the developers whos contributed to this open source lib.

  3. The minified is a lightweight version of the library. Favorably used in production as its faster (smaller in size). The uncompressed version is easier to read, maintain and modify yourself and can be used for learning, testing and understand. This is favorable to use while in dev/test phase.

1- JQuery is an open-source Javascript library that makes it easier and faster for developers to build webpages and web apps

2- JQuery allows the following:

  • Ā« add animated effects to elements on webpages - make XML (Ajax) requests (request of data from a server without reloading the webpage) - rearrange/manipulate DOM - create slideshows - make drop-down menus - create drag and drop interfaces - add power to forms - make the codes run across browsers Ā»

3- * minified .js file - > condensed version of JQuery that is added to JS code/webpage; not as readable as the uncompressed .js file- this version allows webpages to download faster - * uncompressed .js file -> JQuery version that includes comments and indentations - can be read by developers but also heavier
