Wonderful letter. I agree wholeheartedly. I learned web development 15 years ago and I stopped for a long time. When I came back about 3 years ago, jQuery for me was such a beautiful and pleasant reintroduction. I kept thinking to myself &quot;I can&#x27;t believe this! You mean I don&#x27;t have to use those insanely long and unintuitive native js Dom calls anymore?!&quot;
