Be part of JetBrains PHPverse 2026 on June 9 – a free online event bringing PHP devs worldwide together.
The survey doesn't surprise me:
https://survey.stackoverflow.co/2023/#most-popular-technologies-webframe
Jquery is in top three. I had already looked at quite a few enterprise companies technologies and saw jquery a lot.
After reading this I discovered that .net also uses Jquery. Then I found this https://trends.builtwith.com/javascript/javascript-library but on this forum it sounds like Jquery is dead. Why is that if Jquery is still widely used? I wonder why Node js wasn't on the Builtwith chart.
@jeffallen maybe that site was only dealing with front end, node js is back end.
There are still a lot here on the forum that use jquery. I think you mostly see vue and the others since those are in the starter kits now.
Some I believe don't realize all of that is optional. I use regular javascript and fetch js.
Please or to participate in this conversation.
