  1. jQuery is a JavaScript library
  2. It provides prebuilt functions/functionality to facilitate building more complex apps
  3. The uncompressed version serves to be read/understood by programmers as it is readable with indentation, white space and comments. The minified/compressed version is a lot smaller and is the version used in action on a website/app as it downloads much faster.

1.What is jQuery
jQuery is an open source library where developers can find code and implement it into their own project.

2.How does it help us as developers?
At first it helps us to advance faster in our project, because we can implement code from the jQuery library and don’t have to code it our self.
Another advantage using code from jQuery is that is compatible with the most web browser.

Why do we have 2 version of jQuery-minified and uncompressed?
The minified version is easier to download and faster (23kb in size) to implement but not easy to read and maintain in contrast with uncompressed jQuery version which is around 160 kb size.

JQuery is a library that helps you write less and more efficient javascript code.

It helps us in many ways, we dont have to write code from scratch and we can just re use what it was already written by our fellow devs.

The uncompressed version is more suitable for dev’s (it has comments,whitespace ) and the minified version is faster to load and it is more suitable for a webpage.

  1. jQuery is a free library that makes it quicker and easier to build JavaScript webpages and web apps.

  2. Often with jQuery you can write a single line of code to achieve what would have taken 10-20 lines of regular JavaScript code.

  3. We should probably use the minified .js file on our site because it has all comments, whitespace, and other unnecessary characters removed from the file, making it much smaller than the uncompressed file so it’s much quicker for visitors to download.

jquery is a library, with a lot of working javeScript code that you can use.

We can use it to make much larger codes. It would be very unmanageable to have to write all the code manually.

in one you download the whole code and cough it yourself. In the second you link to it.

  1. What is jQuery?
    jQuery is a free JavaScript library and it’s by far the most popular JavaScript library in use today. 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.
    jQuery is itself written in JavaScript, and comes in the form of a single .js file that you link to from your webpage. Your JavaScript code then accesses the library by calling various jQuery functions.

  2. How does it help us as developers?
    Its avoiding us to reinventing the wheel, waste time on something that a clever programmer already have done. So why reinvent the wheel? Maybe next time we are helping the guy that created this specifical part of the library. The power of the comunity that help each other.

  3. Why do we have 2 version of jQuery - minified and uncompressed?
    • The uncompressed .js file is easy to read and modify, but it’s around 160kb in size (at the time of writing).
    • The minified .js file has all comments, whitespace, and other unnecessary characters removed from the file, squeezing the whole library into a mere 23kb. Although you can’t easily read the code, this is the version you’ll want to place on your site, as it’s much quicker for visitors to download.
