I am learning web development. Should I learn jQuery?
As an instructor, I struggle with this question. But it is my experience, web dev students learn faster when they grasp the basic concepts of what the job entails first.Handing Crockford’s Good Parts to a student who’s never seen a loop before and telling them the right way to learn is to understand all the advanced stuff first is a good way to baffle someone into becoming a tax attorney instead.I think the key is to learn from jQuery. You can study how does it do its many jobs, but most beginners just need to learn what those jobs are first.You’re starting to learn web development and need to learn what to do. As in what does it mean to handle browser events, to select from, traverse and manipulate the DOM, to do Ajax etc. It’s easy to learn to get those things done in jQuery, relative to learning them in vanilla JavaScript. First, learn to put a click handler on something or how to choose whether to use a blur/focus, a keyup or down, or a change in a form, then you can learn all about normalizing event bubbling or whether onload or $(document).ready triggers first.I personally ‘learned’ JavaScript before jQuery, but never really understood its complexities until jQuery came around. So I can answer both ways. I originally wrote a huge answer going on and on about my reasoning- but I’m just going to be brief and I hope my points come across.Yes. For 2 reasons:Learn with ‘training wheels’ first. You pick up more faster.Your first websites for actual clients will use jQuery.No. For a few reasons:You eventually will need to learn all the things jQuery hides from you and makes easier.There’s too many other reasons or not using jQuery to list here. They range from performance to the ability to charge more/get higher paying gigs.Unfortunately you won’t learn the real reasons not to use it (and not just because it’s not fashionable) unless you use it.And not knowing why not to use jQuery will not teach you the reasons why you shouldn’t use [choose any other platform/library/framework].…My final point is that while the startups and fancy development firms spend months rebasing apps with React, piling on billable hours and demanding recruiters to send them more and more people who know React, all in an effort to solve complex development issues, they still call me when one of those ‘full-stack’ people break the jQuery carousel or scrollytelling animation on their Bootstrap-driven product-explainer homepage.

I already know HTML, CSS, JavaScript & jQuery to some extend. How can I start becoming a web developer and expertise in it? Where can I start?
Do you really know them?Stop thinking that you "know" these languages. Treat programming languages like you would real languages. I've spoken Spanish for over half my life, but I don't know it; I speak it. There's still plenty about the language that surprises me. So, don't think that you know HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. But to consider yourself proficient, or fluent, in these languages. When you think that you know something, you tend to also think that there's nothing left to be learned. Don't open yourself up to that kind of thinking. How to startIf you want expertise in building websites, build one. Make your first website your own. Buy your own name, create an online resume for yourself. Redesign and redevelop it every few months. Start with static HTML, then transition to PHP, or other server side languages. Where to startAfter you've built and rebuilt your own website a few times, build a website for a friend who needs one (a basic one). Do it for cheap, or heck, even trade. Get feedback from other folks on the site. Once you've built your first website for someone else, for money, congratulations! You're now a professional. That doesn't make you good, though. Nor does it make you experienced. Now you either need to find a company hiring entry-level front-end devs, or try to make it in a freelance job.
