And it just celebrated its 20th birthday in style last week by dropping &lt;a href="https://c5e21242.click.kit-mail6.com/27uepe0gddioh8lwe7kf3hgz5m744hghm2v3/l2heh6ulqln5ndf6/aHR0cHM6Ly9ibG9nLmpxdWVyeS5jb20vMjAyNi8wMS8xNy9qcXVlcnktNC0wLTAv" style="color: #12b5e5; font-weight: 600; text-decoration: underline;" url-id="1826454597"&gt;jQuery 4.0&lt;/a&gt; out of nowhere.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="font-family: Outfit, sans-serif; font-size: 17px; line-height: 1.5; padding-left: 24px; padding-right: 24px;"&gt;This is jQuery’s first major release in almost a decade, but thankfully the team didn’t slap on some MCP support and try to pitch us all on the next 20 years of AI-powered jQuery.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="font-family: Outfit, sans-serif; font-size: 17px; line-height: 1.5; padding-left: 24px; padding-right: 24px;"&gt;Instead, they shipped some helpful quality of life improvements for the &lt;a href="https://c5e21242.click.kit-mail6.com/27uepe0gddioh8lwe7kf3hgz5m744hghm2v3/m2h7h6u323qkqxam/aHR0cHM6Ly93M3RlY2hzLmNvbS90ZWNobm9sb2dpZXMvb3ZlcnZpZXcvamF2YXNjcmlwdF9saWJyYXJ5P3V0bV9zb3VyY2U9Y2hhdGdwdC5jb20=" style="color: #12b5e5; font-weight: 600; text-decoration: underline;" url-id="1826454598"&gt;many&lt;/a&gt; websites that still rely on it in The Year Of Our Spec 2026. Let’s take a closer look:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;p style="font-family: Outfit, sans-serif; font-size: 17px; line-height: 1.5;"&gt;&lt;strong style="font-weight: 600;"&gt;RIP legacy browsers&lt;/strong&gt; – jQuery 4 drops support for IE 10 and older, along with Edge Legacy, and some ancient mobile browsers that only the trees remember the names of. This let the team delete a lot of compatibility hacks and deprecated APIs that shrink its overall size by ~3KB.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;p style="font-family: Outfit, sans-serif; font-size: 17px; line-height: 1.5;"&gt;&lt;strong style="font-weight: 600;"&gt;Trusted Types + CSP support&lt;/strong&gt; – jQuery now cooperates nicely with strict Content Security Policies instead of fighting against them, thanks to support for Trusted Types and safer script loading.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;p style="font-family: Outfit, sans-serif; font-size: 17px; line-height: 1.5;"&gt;&lt;strong style="font-weight: 600;"&gt;Modern upgrades&lt;/strong&gt; – They migrated the jQuery source to ES modules, switched to Rollup for more modern bundling, and made the library compatible with modern build tools and browsers through the use of &lt;code style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;&lt;script type="module"&gt;&lt;/code&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p style="font-family: Outfit, sans-serif; font-size: 17px; line-height: 1.5; padding-left: 24px; padding-right: 24px;"&gt;&lt;strong style="font-weight: 600;"&gt;Bottom Line:&lt;/strong&gt; It’s nice to see jQuery aging so gracefully, unlike all the millennials who got a broccoli haircut and started wearing JNCO jeans in 2025.&lt;/p&gt;
