You (Might) Don't Need jQuery

Frontend environments evolve rapidly nowadays and modern browsers have already implemented a great deal of DOM/BOM APIs which are good enough for production use. We don't have to learn jQuery from scratch for DOM manipulation or event handling. In the meantime, thanks to the spread of frontend libraries such as React, Angular and Vue, manipulating the DOM directly becomes anti-pattern, so that jQuery usage has never been less important. This project summarizes most of the alternatives in native Javascript implementation to jQuery methods, with IE 10 support.

ℹ️ Notice:

  1. jQuery is still a great library and has many valid use cases. Don’t migrate away if you don’t want to!
  2. The alternatives are not completely equivalent in all scenarios, and it is recommended that you test it before using it.

Query Selector

In place of common selectors like class, id or attribute we can use document.querySelector or document.querySelectorAll for substitution. The differences lie in:

  • document.querySelector returns the first matched element
  • document.querySelectorAll returns all matched elements as NodeList. It can be converted to Array using Array.prototype.slice.call(document.querySelectorAll(selector)); or any of the methods outlined in makeArray
  • If there are no elements matched, jQuery and document.querySelectorAll will return [], whereas document.querySelector will return null.

Notice: document.querySelector and document.querySelectorAll are quite SLOW, thus try to use document.getElementById, document.getElementsByClassName or document.getElementsByTagName if you want to get a performance bonus.

  • 1.0 Query by selector

    // jQuery
    $('selector');
    
    // Native
    document.querySelectorAll('selector');
  • 1.1 Query by class

    // jQuery
    $('.class');
    
    // Native
    document.querySelectorAll('.class');
    
    // or
    document.getElementsByClassName('class');
  • 1.2 Query by id

    // jQuery
    $('#id');
    
    // Native
    document.querySelector('#id');
    
    // or
    document.getElementById('id');
    
    // or
    window['id']
  • 1.3 Query by attribute

    // jQuery
    $('a[target=_blank]');
    
    // Native
    document.querySelectorAll('a[target=_blank]');
  • 1.4 Query in descendants

    // jQuery
    $el.find('li');
    
    // Native
    el.querySelectorAll('li');
  • 1.5 Sibling/Previous/Next Elements

    • All siblings

      // jQuery
      $el.siblings();
      
      // Native - latest, Edge13 
      [...el.parentNode.children].filter((child) =>
        child !== el
      );
      // Native (alternative) - latest, Edge13 
      Array.from(el.parentNode.children).filter((child) =>
        child !== el
      );
      // Native - IE10 
      Array.prototype.filter.call(el.parentNode.children, (child) =>
        child !== el
      );
    • Previous sibling

      // jQuery
      $el.prev();
      
      // Native
      el.previousElementSibling;
    • Next sibling

      // jQuery
      $el.next();
      
      // Native
      el.nextElementSibling;
    • All previous siblings

      // jQuery (optional filter selector)
      $el.prevAll($filter);
      
      // Native (optional filter function)
      function getPreviousSiblings(elem, filter) {
        var sibs = [];
        while (elem = elem.previousSibling) {
            if (elem.nodeType === 3) continue; // ignore text nodes
            if (!filter || filter(elem)) sibs.push(elem);
        }
        return sibs;
      }
    • All next siblings

      // jQuery (optional selector filter)
      $el.nextAll($filter);
      
      // Native (optional filter function)
      function getNextSiblings(elem, filter) {
              var sibs = [];
              var nextElem = elem.parentNode.firstChild;
              do {
                  if (nextElem.nodeType === 3) continue; // ignore text nodes
                  if (nextElem === elem) continue; // ignore elem of target
                  if (nextElem === elem.nextElementSibling) {
                      if (!filter || filter(elem)) {
                          sibs.push(nextElem);
                          elem = nextElem;
                      }
                  }
              } while(nextElem = nextElem.nextSibling)
              return sibs;
          }

An example of filter function:

function exampleFilter(elem) {
  switch (elem.nodeName.toUpperCase()) {
    case 'DIV':
      return true;
    case 'SPAN':
      return true;
    default:
      return false;
  }
}
  • 1.6 Closest

    el.closest(selector);
    
    // Native - IE10 
    function closest(el, selector) {
      const matchesSelector = el.matches || el.webkitMatchesSelector || el.mozMatchesSelector || el.msMatchesSelector;
    
      while (el) {
        if (matchesSelector.call(el, selector)) {
          return el;

      // match start from parent
      el = el.parentElement;
      while (el && !matchesSelector.call(el, selector)) {
        if (!filter) {
          result.push(el);
        } else {
          if (matchesSelector.call(el, filter)) {
            result.push(el);

Utilities

Most of jQuery utilities are also found in the native API. Other advanced functions could be chosen from better utilities libraries, focusing on consistency and performance. Lodash is a recommended replacement.

  • 6.1 Basic utilities

    • isArray

    Determine whether the argument is an array.

    // jQuery
    $.isArray(array);
    
    // Native
    Array.isArray(array);
    • isWindow

    Determine whether the argument is a window.

    // jQuery
    $.isWindow(obj);
    
    // Native
    function isWindow(obj) {
      return obj !== null && obj !== undefined && obj === obj.window;
    }
    • inArray

    Search for a specified value within an array and return its index (or -1 if not found).

    // jQuery
    $.inArray(item, array);

    array.indexOf(item) > -1;
    
    // ES6-way
    array.includes(item);
    • isNumeric

    Determine if the argument passed is numerical. Use typeof to decide the type or the type example for better accuracy.

    // jQuery

    // jQuery
    $.isPlainObject(obj);
    
    // Native
    function isPlainObject(obj) {
      if (typeof (obj) !== 'object' || obj.nodeType || obj !== null && obj !== undefined && obj === obj.window) {

      if (obj.constructor &&
          !Object.prototype.hasOwnProperty.call(obj.constructor.prototype, 'isPrototypeOf')) {

      }
    
      return true;
    }
    • extend

    Merge the contents of two or more objects together into a new object, without modifying either argument. object.assign is part of ES6 API, and you could also use a polyfill.

    });
    
    // Native
    array.forEach((value, index) => {
    });
    • grep

    Finds the elements of an array which satisfy a filter function.

        .replace(reTypeOf, '$1')
        .toLowerCase();
    }
    • merge

    Merge the contents of two arrays together into the first array.

    Return a number representing the current time.

    // jQuery
    $.now();
    
    // Native
    Date.now();
    • proxy

    // jQuery
    $.proxy(fn, context);
    
    // Native
    fn.bind(context);

    makeArray

    Convert an array-like object into a true JavaScript array.

    // jQuery
    $.makeArray(arrayLike);
    
    // Native
    Array.prototype.slice.call(arrayLike);

    // jQuery
    $.parseHTML(htmlString);
    
    // Native
    function parseHTML(string) {
      const context = document.implementation.createHTMLDocument();
    
      // Set the base href for the created document so any parsed elements with URLs
      // are based on the document's URL
      const base = context.createElement('base');
      base.href = document.location.href;
      context.head.appendChild(base);
    
      context.body.innerHTML = string;
      return context.body.children;
    }

Promises

A promise represents the eventual result of an asynchronous operation. jQuery has its own way to handle promises. Native JavaScript implements a thin and minimal API to handle promises according to the Promises/A specification.

  • 7.1 done, fail, always

    done is called when promise is resolved, fail is called when promise is rejected, always is called when promise is either resolved or rejected.

    // jQuery
    $promise.done(doneCallback).fail(failCallback).always(alwaysCallback)
    
    // Native
    promise.then(doneCallback, failCallback).then(alwaysCallback, alwaysCallback)
  • 7.2 when

    when is used to handle multiple promises. It will resolve when all promises are resolved, and reject if either one is rejected.

    // jQuery
    $.when($promise1, $promise2).done((promise1Result, promise2Result) => {
    });
    
    // Native
    Promise.all([$promise1, $promise2]).then([promise1Result, promise2Result] => {});
  • 7.3 Deferred

    Deferred is a way to create promises.

    // jQuery
    function asyncFunc() {
      const defer = new $.Deferred();
      setTimeout(() => {
        if(true) {
          defer.resolve('some_value_computed_asynchronously');
        } else {
          defer.reject('failed');
        }
      }, 1000);
    
      return defer.promise();
    }
    
    // Native
    function asyncFunc() {
      return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
        setTimeout(() => {
          if (true) {
            resolve('some_value_computed_asynchronously');
          } else {
            reject('failed');
          }
        }, 1000);
      });
    }
    
    // Deferred way
    function defer() {
      const deferred = {};
      const promise = new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
        deferred.resolve = resolve;
        deferred.reject = reject;
      });
    
      deferred.promise = () => {
        return promise;
      };
    
      return deferred;
    }
    
    function asyncFunc() {
      const defer = defer();
      setTimeout(() => {
        if(true) {
          defer.resolve('some_value_computed_asynchronously');
        } else {
          defer.reject('failed');
        }
      }, 1000);
    
      return defer.promise();
    }
