If someone reaches for jquery as an abstraction layer over JavaScript in 2024, I immediately question everything else. You're pulling in the jquery library for a set of features, followed by hundreds of features you won't use.
Absolutely no reason why you can't recreate the same features in JavaScript, with a much smaller footprint.
