Frameworks make coding much easier, like they were intended.

<div id="container">text</div>


Pure JS:
document.getElementsById('container').innerHTML;

jQuery:
$('#container').html();

These essentially perform the same task - get the contents of an element with an id of container.

While frameworks give the developer less work to do, it also prevents them from learning the backend of what's really happening. Let's say a user without a background in Javascript is first introduced to jQuery. They will learn the jQuery method, but will not necessarily know what jQuery is really doing to the page to perform that action.

Because of a framework's simplicity, pure Javascript is hardly ever used by the developer, it is only used by the developers of the framework.

Is this going to lead to higher demand of users who actually know the pure form of a programming language in the future?
