Bro I’m still rockin’ jQuery. I did some projects using React, then stepped back for a bit and asked why, then never used it again.

Even jQuery doesn't work on Sciter.

Nothing wrong with jQuery if it suits your use case! Sometimes mutating the DOM directly is simpler and more maintainable.

IMO React is a response to a problem that not all websites have (complex state-dependent nested UIs). At a certain level of complexity it's worth it, at another level it's necessary, beyond that it's insufficient... but below that it can totally be unnecessary and more pain than it's worth :)

Go with what works for you and your team!
