Wrapping Up

jQuery has made user-interface enhancements far easier by simplifying JavaScript and combining it with the syntax of CSS. The framework provides a way to write less, spend less time testing, and achieve more complex results in less time. jQuery lets you enhance webpages by easily adding custom interactions, as well as custom effects to provide visual feedback to users, ultimately creating a better user experience.

This book is not intended to teach the jQuery framework, but this chapter reviewed concepts that are necessary to understand and work with the jQuery Mobile framework. To learn more about the jQuery framework, visit jquery.com. The online documentation is very comprehensive and includes code samples, developer comments, and in-depth descriptions of the available objects, methods, events, and so on. You can also visit the jQuery forums at forum.jquery.com, where other developers are available to help with any coding questions you may have.
