What is jQuery?

jQuery is a lightweight Javascript library that emphasises interaction between Javascript and HTML. It was released in January 2006 at BarCamp by John Resig.

It is free open source software licensed under the MIT license and GNU General Public license.

Just as CSS separates display characteristics from the HTML structure, jQuery separates the behavior characteristics from the HTML structure. For example, instead of directly specifying the on-click event handler in the specification of a button element, a jQuery driven page would first identify the button element, and then modify its on-click event handler. This separation of behavior from structure is also referred to as the principle of Unobtrusive JavaScript.
