  3. We have 2 versions of jQuery – minified and uncompressed. This is because while the uncompressed file is easy to read and modify, it’s around 160 kb in size. The minified file, however, removes all comments, whitespace, and other unnecessary characters while allows the file to fit in 23 kb. It is not as easy to read the code, but this is the version that should be placed on the site because it is quicker for visitors to download.

It’s a library that makes easier and quicker to write code. With jQuery you can organize your big code into 2 lines.

  1. What is jQuery? jQuery is the most popular javascript library. It is free to download and use.

  2. How does it help us as developers? Developers can find script that suits their purposes and insert it into their code - rather than creating new code from scratch.

  3. Why do we have 2 version of jQuery - minified and uncompressed? Uncompressed code is easier to read but it takes about 160 kb and loads slowly as compared to minified code which would be 23kb. Minified code has all the white space and unnecessary characters removed and is, therefore, more difficult to read.

  1. jQuery is one of (the most?) popular javascript library.

  2. It adds a lot of short-hand ways of writing javascript. It has a lot of built-in functions to achieve things frequently used by developers like .show() and .hide() .

  3. Minified files should be used on production servers. uncompressed files make it a little easier to debug, although developer tools now have prettifier functionality for minified code so it can still be debugged :).

  1. JQuery is a javascript library for all to use for faster programming.
  2. It helps developers by saving loads of time because its likely that whatever coding you may need to use it already exists in the JQuery library.
  3. The minified version is for speed in the website, because all of the unnecessary things are taken out leaving the coding with less space taken up. The uncompressed version is for programmers to understand easier, but this version takes up more space and is a little slower.
