jQuery 3.7.0 is now available! This release has it all: bug fixes, a new method, and a performance improvement! We even dropped our longtime selector engine: Sizzle. Or, I should say, we moved it into jQuery. 

what I want is just a smaller jQuery. Enter Umbrella JS by Francisco Presencia , a tiny 8kb (3kb gzipped) alternative with a very familiar, fluent API. 

Automatically finds jQuery methods from existing projects and generates vanilla js alternatives.  

• This year, React.js surpassed jQuery as the most commonly used web framework.  

jQuery 3.6.0 has been released! In jQuery 3.5.0, the major change was a security fix for the html prefilter. This release does not include a security fix, but does have some good bug fixes and improvements. We still have our eyes on a jQuery 4.0 release, but until then we will continue to support the 3.x branch and address important issues. 

<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#number-picker").dpNumberPicker({
min: false, // Minimum value.
max: false, // Maximum value.
value: 0, // Initial value
step: 1, // Incremental/decremental step on up/down change.
format: false,
editable: true,
addText: "+",
subText: "-",
formatter: function(val){return val;},
beforeIncrease: function(){},
afterIncrease: function(){},
beforeDecrease: function(){},
afterDecrease: function(){},
beforeChange: function(){},
afterChange: function(){},
onMin: function(){},
onMax: function(){}
});
</script>

The main change in this release is a security fix, and it’s possible you will need to change your own code to adapt. Here’s why: jQuery used a regex in its jQuery.htmlPrefilter method to ensure that all closing tags were XHTML-compliant when passed to methods. For example, this prefilter ensured that a call like jQuery("<div class='hot' />") is actually converted to jQuery("<div class='hot'></div>"). Recently, an issue was reported that demonstrated the regex could introduce a cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability.
