Can I disable JQuery in browsers?

As the title says, Can I disable JQuery in browsers?

I wrote a JQuery function for my website and thought that if any user disable the JQuery like we disable the JS, then what should I do for that.

We disable the JavaScript from settings in our browser, like that, is it possible to disable the JQuery?

I searched for a while on this questions:

Disable Jquery in certain sections

Is possible to disable Javascript/Jquery from the browser inspector console?

But in the first question, the user is asking for a particular section and in the second question, the user is asking for a console. So I couldn't find a proper answer for my question. Can anyone know is it possible. If yes, how?

Thank You.

Solution

  • You can disable jQuery in your browser by disabling JavaScript. jQuery is just a library written in JavaScript, not its own language.

    You can't disable just jQuery while allowing other JavaScript in browser settings. It would be possible to write a browser extension/add-on that did that, but it wouldn't be very useful.

    In a comment you've said:

    Actually I wrote a jquery function for my website and thought if some user disable the jquery like JS then what should I do for tha.

    The user won't specifically disable jQuery, but they may well disable JavaScript. (It's quite rare these days, but people do still do it.) If you want to tell the user that your site works better when JavaScript is enabled, include noscript content:

    <noscript>
Your message goes here
</noscript>

    That content will only be shown to users with JavaScript disabled (or in a browser that doesn't support JavaScript at all).
