The impact of removing jQuery on our web performance
If you are mainly using jquery for its DOM manipulation¹ rather than for browser compatibility² or things that didn't exist consistently in older browsers³ then there are much smaller libraries that do that job which may be worth looking into. https://github.com/fabiospampinato/cash or https://github.com/franciscop/umbrella to give a couple of examples. Some explicitly support IE11 so you are not dropping as much support for legacy browsers as you might otherwise.
Though if jQuery works for you and isn't a performance issue, then by all means keep with it. It may not be ideal, but good enough and does the job. Let the naysayers spend their time debating whether you should or not, and just get on with making things!

Yes, and if you continue long enough you end up with one of the many jQuery alternatives, like mine:

Ask HN: Should I even bother with React?
If you're learning React just to get a job, you're doing it wrong, since recruiters are always changing their requirements. They will add `proficient in Svelte` just to annoy you, (after having learning React) and now you're no longer relevant to them.
That's why I say: stick to the baseline of HTML, CSS, & JS. Learn to write vanilla JS for common things, maybe learn UmbrellaJS[0] for syntactic sugar and manipulating the DOM.
Oh and learn some APIs to do back-end stuff too. And for forms, there's loads of projects out there to automate that[1]

Replacing jQuery (110kb) With UmbrellaJS (8kb)
const insertAfter = (col, html) => col.forEach(el => el.insertAdjacentElement('afterend', html));
Keep going a bit like that, until you realize you are basically reinventing jQuery. Add a couple of very nice-to-haves, like chaining (instead of nesting in these examples above) and that's exactly what Umbrella JS is, very thin methods to manipulate the DOM and handle events. In fact, compare our "addClass" implementation in this comment to [Umbrella's addClass](https://github.com/franciscop/umbrella/blob/master/src/plugi...), it's almost the same size but hundred times more flexible:
// Add class(es) to the matched nodes

🤓 My top 3 Go packages that I wish I'd known about earlier
✨ In recent months, I have been developing web projects using GOTTHA stack: Go + Templ + Tailwind CSS + htmx + Alpine.js. As soon as I'm ready to talk about all the subtleties and pitfalls, I'll post it on my social networks.

Htmx Is Composable?
> But honestly, torn towards htmx but undecided.
We are in the middle of migrating from our monster react application into server rendered pages (with jinja2). The velocity at which we are able to ship and the reduction of complexity has been great so far.
Managing client side state for simple things like (is the dropdown open/closed), listening to keyboard events and such can be done with something like alpine-js [1] without all the baggage that something like react brings.
It appears this is already the trend with JS frameworks too - with server side rendering being the new norm.

Coming to grips with JS: a Rubyist's deep dive
Sure, you can use any number of JS-avoidance libraries. I'm a fan of Turbo, and there's also htmx, Unpoly, Alpine, hyperscript, swup, barba.js, and probably others.

What is your opinion about developers who do direct DOM manipulations instead of using modern web frameworks (like React, Vue, Angular) to achieve maximum performance?
Direct DOM, but with a library. Specifically AlpineJS since it follows Vue closely in design practices allowing me to scale into a full web application if necessary (basically swapping to Vue takes minimal work). The Morph plugin is specifically what I like using.

Kicking the tires with NestJS and Hotwire: Part II
If you want more details on the initial setup I encourage you to take a look at the Part I that covers more of the initial implementation. For this portion, I added Prisma as an ORM, a frontend style library called Tachyons, and AlpineJS to handle any client-side interactions. I did this to avoid needing to add a client-side bundler to the build and instead just rely on plain old module imports to compose the frontend. This is now the default for Rails and it is quite nice to not need any additional build tools for the client.
