Software Engineer Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 1/11/2021 "jQuery Mobile was a great option in the past" 2/5 What do you like best about jQuery Mobile? One of the best jQuery Mobile features is ThemeRoller. It allows you to change your app look simply by dragging and dropping colors. they can manipulate various elements of a page according to the requirements of the client. Likewise, they can also apply the CSS-based transition effects included in the framework to customize form submission and page links through AJAX. Users can import a current theme, make changes, and export the theme back to the app for integration. I think it was a great solution at its time. Many businesses find it challenging to get their apps included in Apple App Store. But jQuery includes the virtues of individual environments. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about jQuery Mobile? It was a good solution at its time, nowadays there are other needs and approaches. The project is practically abandoned, it checked out its GitHub repo, their last commit was in 2019 (today's 01-2021). It doesn't support MVC framework. There are new and innovative alternatives rather than jQuery nowadays. The performance of mobile web applications developed using jQuery differs across web browsers and devices. Programmers have highlighted the apps perform slower on Android. But the same apps run faster on iOS devices. Also, the jQuery applications cannot outperform native mobile applications in the category of speed. This is something you should care about when user experience is graded in you application. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering jQuery Mobile: There are other options you should consider before using jQuery Mobile like React Native, Angular JS OR Ionic. They are new and the best options. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is jQuery Mobile solving and how is that benefiting you? One of the innovative features is the cross-platform, a time ago, you had to write code for every OS (Android, iOS or Windows Phone). It also supports several mobile devices with varying screen sizes and resolutions which is great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
