jQuery++ is an MIT-licensed collection of low-level DOM helpers and special events for jQuery 1.8+, such as CSS-based animation, cookie handling, form serialization, text ranges, and delegatable drag/drop/swipe/hover events. It is not a UI widget library like jQuery UI, but a utility layer filling gaps in jQuery's core API.

Use cases

• add drag and drop events to jQuery elements
• serialize an HTML form into a JavaScript object
• read and write cookies with jQuery
• animate elements using CSS3 transitions instead of JavaScript
• get and set the current text selection in the DOM
• detect swipe and hover gestures on touch and desktop
• find elements within a given area or point on the page

When to choose

• you maintain a legacy jQuery codebase and need low-level DOM utilities or special events
• you want lightweight drag, drop, swipe, or hover event support without a full UI framework
• you need form serialization, cookie helpers, or text range/selection utilities in a jQuery project

When to avoid

• you are starting a new modern project without jQuery
• you need full UI widgets like datepickers or dialogs (use jQuery UI or a modern framework)
• you need actively maintained software with recent releases
