I would actually not consider jQuery to be innovative as much as it was a refinement&#x2F;improvement of existing libraries such as Prototype and Dojo. I think jQuery is great so this isn&#x27;t a knock against it, but rather just saying that sometimes one thing comes out that is revolutionary but then something else that is an improvement&#x2F;iteration on that smooths out the rough edges and becomes &quot;the one framework to rule them all&quot; (for a few years, at least).
