So now say "death to jQuery" and it makes you look cool trendy right ? or what ? because saying "death to flash" is so 2010 ?

I hope you test your code like in 5 desktop browsers with different versions + 4 mobile browers with different versions , what , you dont ? well jQuery devs do ...

you dont care ? oh yeah your one of these mobile first , desktop last devs , then good luck with old versions of android browsers ...

I'm always amused by all these "death to this" , "death to that" , like it gives anyone any credibility...

So you get it folks , dont use jquery , reinvent the wheel like a true purist ,and remember to tell everyone "jQuery must die" , while professionals have code to ship.
