Is jQuery still the go-to JS helper library? (self.programming)

It's been awhile since I did any frontend work. Is there something that has taken jQuery's place?

Same here, tbh I haven't thought about jquery in a while and kinda came in here to see if it's dead or not. Yeah frameworks have largely eliminated the "need" for jquery libraries for most projects. It's weird to think about, didn't take too long to happen.
