  1. it is a library of functions to make coding faster and easier
    2)it allows us to achieve a specific outcome by recalling JQuery and using a line or two of code rather than writing out multiple time-wasting lines
    3)uncompressed is good for the developer to read and modify. the minified version is best for the actual website as it makes the load times much faster for the user

  1. jQuery is a library that makes it easier to build websites and webapps in JavaScript.
  2. It helps us as developers by minimizing the amount of work we have to do. The things we build become more efficient in how long it takes and the quality of the webpage/webapp.
    3a. The minified version is one that takes up less memory but is very hard to read the actual code.
    3b. The uncompressed version is a version that has everything including the developer’s comments while also being the easier version of the two to read and modify.

  1. JQuery is a free JavaScript library.

  2. In case of JQuery it allow us to code the same functionalities using less lines of code.

  3. Minified is the version without comments, it is lighter that uncompressed so is good for the browser but hard to read to the coder. Uncompressed is just the opposite.

  1. Jquery is a free javascript library that provides complex java script codes for developers to use.

  2. It saves time, “why try to reinvent the wheel”? Additionally, the JQuery is cross browser compatible, which helps because different browsers can have different standards which make it so your code can look one way on one browser, but another way on another browser. JQuery automatically, applies the right code for each browser.

  3. There are two types: uncompressed .js file, and the minified .js file. The uncompressed version provides more info for the developer, so the developer knows what the code does, however that info can slow down browsers. So the compressed version cuts out the excess info, so that pages load faster.

  1. What is jQuery? - a JS library.
  2. How does it help us as developers? - it allows developers to create complex code in just a couple of lines, i.e. simplifying the code. It also provided cross browser consistency.
  3. Why do we have 2 version of jQuery - minified and uncompressed? - one is for people to read, understand and modify. The other is to provide the functionality with the most efficiency by removing the whitespace, comments, and excess characters.

jQuery is a free JavaScript library.

Yes ist does help. With jQuery you can write powerful JavaScript apps using fewer lines of code.

  • 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.

  2. It helps us write code faster

  3. The uncompressed is easier to read and easier to modify but its a larger file. The minified has all unnecessary characters removed which makes it harder to read but its a smaller file so its much quicker for visitors to download if you put it on your website.

jQuery is one of the most popular and smart libraries which you can find your Needed codes in the best way-written, meaning shorter and quicker.The jQuery Codes themselves are written in javascript and are available in a single form of .js so we can use them by linking to our webpages to form them.and then by calling different jquery functions** **

To Avoid reusing the javascript codes we can have them copied from others codes that already been stablished and tested,.therefore all these codes are available in many libaries

  2. jQuery saves time and frees developers from having to ensure that jQuery code will work with all browsers.
  3. The uncompressed version, which includes spaces (indentation) and comments, is used by developers to help them better understand the functions. The minified version, which has no spaces or comments, is called by the web page because it takes less time to download.

What is jQuery?
jQuery is a free JavaScript library where we can add several functionalities to a website. The best part is that we can do it just by calling them, and using the minimum code necessary

How does it help us as developers?
Since all this “Apps” have already been written and tested, we free our mind to focus on what is important, what is the goal of a specific webpage. For the remaining animations, drag-drop, forms, … we will just choose the one we like more and implement it.

Why do we have 2 version of jQuery - minified and uncompressed?
Uncompressed version of jQuery has all the detailed information on how each function works, as a guideline from the developer so we can read it and understand it better. The minified version removes all the previous information leaving only the code. It is also lighter, and should be the one used of the website, as loading speed is also improved.

  1. jQuery is a precompiled library of javascript functions.
  2. As a developer you can add the jQuery file to your website and call any of the functions from jQuery without having to write the functions yourself.
  3. There are 2 versions of jQuery, the first is what I consider the ‘full version’ uncompressed .js file. This contains all the code, comments and formatting so you can read the functions and see how they work. The second version is the minified .js file, this is a smaller version of the file ideal for hosting on webpages as it still contains all the code and functions but has had all the visual formatting, comments etc removed to save on space.

jQuery is by far the most popular JavaScript library in use today. With jQuery you can write a single line of code to achieve what would have taken 10-20 lines of JavaScript code. jQuery comes in the two formats because one format (the uncompressed.js file) is easy to read and modify but it is a big file while the minified.js file has all comments, white space and other unnecessary characters removed from the file.
