There is jQuery 4.0 in the works(95% done), not sure what new feature it brings. https://github.com/jquery/jquery/milestone/7 it's updated a while ago though.

alpine.js could be an alternative to jQuery.

wonder if jQuery is still used for new projects these days.

Alpine.js has been a wonderful new tool in my arsenal.

I prefer lightweight tools that solve big problems while still staying small/simple. Alpine.js really hits that balance for me. The fact I'm able to drop it in without a single Node.js/etc build tooling is astounding (esbuild, rome, etc). I really prefer how it stays true to vanilla JS/general web development while also bringing modern attribute-driven reactivity to the table.
