Many are afraid that the modern javascript frameworks like jQuery, Prototype,Mootools distort the base javascript language and moves us away from the language foundations.
Actually same applies to any programming language and its frameworks. For me it is a matter of personal taste. We are free to choose how much we use those frameworks or stay with the language itself.
I don’t choose my frameworks by how close they stay to the original programming language, but how fast they help me to reach my project goals. If some people want to philosophy about it, they are free to do so. A framework summarizing 10 steps into one is a huge benefit when doing complicated or repeating functioanlity.
For me jQuery is the ultimate tool and provides a good set of functioanlity in a rather small sized package. You can easily extend it through its plugin structure. It provides a vivid and balanced community, that also opens its doors for those that are just starting to get their hands dirty, those might just be the innovators of tomorrow.

I am a full-stack developer. My expertise include:
I love programming, design and know my way around server architecture as well. I would never feel complete, with one of these missing.
I have a broad range of interests, that’s why I constantly dive into new technologies and expand my knowledge where ever required. Technologies are evolving fast and I enjoy using the latest.
Apart from that, I am a peace loving guy who tries to have people around him that think the same. I truly believe in the principle: “If you help someone, someone will help you, when you need it."
