What is the difference between jQuery and JavaScript?

The question is about jQuery

Answer:

jQuery is a library built on JavaScript that simplifies common tasks like DOM manipulation, event handling, and AJAX requests. JavaScript is a programming language used for creating dynamic web content, while jQuery abstracts and condenses repetitive JavaScript code into shorter, more readable methods. Developers often use jQuery for quick implementation of features without writing verbose JavaScript code.
