1, jQuery is the most popular JavaScript library.
2, It has several usages, such as working with users interface, adding animated effects, making Ajax requests and many more. It is free and available for everyone, incompatibilities with most of the popular websites. It ‘converts’ the code between different browsers.
3,
Minified version is much smaller, has removed any comments or unnecessary characters. Even if it’s harder to read, that’s the version what has been mostly used.
The uncompressed version (I’m assuming) has the comments and whitespaces, easier to read and work with, probably developers in their early stage will most likely use this version, but it’s much bigger than the minified version.

What is jQuery: It is a library for JavaScript for building webpages

How does it help us as developers : The library has built-in multi used and time-consuming coding that can be reused by writing simple code

Why do we have 2 versions of jquery-minified and uncompressed : Uncompressed is readable and modifications are options if in case ?. Minified is smaller (160/23 mb) but codes are not visible but works else the same

  1. What is jQuery?
  • Its a huge free JavaScript Library.
  1. How does it help us as developers?
  • You can write powerful JavaScript apps and WebApps with fewer lines of code. Helps you to do a lot of things in a shorter time and less effort . Basically “Why you willing to reinvent the wheel.”
  1. Why do we have 2 version of jQuery - minified and uncompressed?
  • The minified version is reduced from all comments , whitespace and all other unnesessery charecters in the file , which makes it less sized . That squeze the whole library in 23kb.
  • The uncompressed version include all comments , whitespace and etc. This makes it easy to read and modify but its in large size , around 160kb.

    It gives us convenient, we don’t have to start from scratch. jQuery makes it easy to write powerful JavaScript apps.

  3. Why do we have 2 version of jQuery - minified and uncompressed?
    The two version has different version and sizes. Uncompressed you use to develop, it’s full of comments and useful variable names. Minified is a lighter version. It saves us some bandwidth and loading time.

  1. jQuery is a free JavaScript library.

  2. It is helpful to a developer in that it provides prewritten, accessible JavaScript code that is ready to go and doesn’t need to be written by the developer.

  3. There are two versions of jQuery. The uncompressed version is easy for the developer to read and modify. The minified version can be used on the developer’s website, as its quicker for visitors to download.

  1. What is jQuery?
    -Jquery is a database that has code functions already typed out structured so we do not have to type every line of code when it is already made for us.
  2. How does it help us as developers?
    -helps maintain use of readibility
  3. Why do we have 2 version of jQuery - minified and uncompressed?
  • Jquery has 2 versions , one that is uncompressed which is easy to read and modify. The other minifies .js file has all the components of code removed so it is fitting the whole library into 25 kb.

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

  2. jQuery allows developers to easily and quickly write complex Javascript apps with minimal lines of code. jQuery also allows us to customize webpage elements such as adding animations, making AJAX requests, managing the Document object model(DOM) and creating other user interface features.

  3. The minified version has a smaller size of about 23kb while the uncompressed version has a larger size of about 160kb. The minified version has fewer developer details and is mainly used as the final product on webpages so users can load the webpages faster.

  • What is jQuery?
    jQuery is a library or source where programmers can retrieve already written codes ( that has certain functions the programmers need) and allow them to freely use it in their own program.

  • How does it help us as developers?
    It help to save lots of time in terms of not needing to invent their own program since the implementation code is already existing, and programmers can cross reference their solution with already existing solution so as to learn other ways of writing programs.

  • Why do we have 2 version of jQuery - minified and uncompressed?

  • uncompressed version contains all the comments, white space etc. This is probably more for users to learn from it.

  • minified version is for programmers to plant them into their own program.

  • What is jQuery? Query 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.
  • How does it help us as developers? jQuery makes it easy to write powerful JavaScript apps and create eye-catching animated effects rivalling those of Flash movies.
  • Why do we have 2 version of jQuery - minified and uncompressed? 1. Uncompressed is used for documentation and understanding purposes, the minified version is the one you should upload in your web server for clients to use.

  1. jQuery is a Javascript library.

  2. jQuery gives developers a wide range of content readily available within the library. It gives the developer options including animations, image effects, DOM manipulation and also condenses code which ultimately results in less lines and neater more readable code.

  3. The uncompressed version of jQuery is easier to read on the plus side but is a lot larger to download than the minified version. The minified version is a much smaller file so faster to download with less memory space used but is much more difficult to read.

  1. jQuery is a JS library that is essentially a simplified JS
  2. It makes adding functionality (like image sliders) much easier and with far less code
  3. The uncompressed version contains all of the code and is easy to navigate when implementing, the compressed version should be used on the live site in order to reduce requests and overall file size (this version is also code crushed together with no white space, making it more difficult to read).
