Let’s learn about jquery. jquery is javascript library included in all meteor apps and used internally by meteor.
What is jQuery?
jQuery is a fast, small, and feature-rich JavaScript library. It makes things like HTML document traversal and manipulation, event handling, animation, and Ajax much simpler with an easy-to-use API
To get the example code, run: git clone https://github.com/RemyNoulin/jquery.git
The code demonstrates:
- .html() to get or set html text for an element
- .val() to get or set the value of an element
- events click, dblclick and keyup
$('button').html('You clicked me, click me.');
The code above changes the text of the button.
$('input').val();
$('input').val('New text from code');
The code above gets and sets the value of the first input element.
var text = $(e.target).val();
The code above gets the value of the element targeted by the event.
$('#another_input').val()
The code above selects an element using an id.
